People with schizophrenia suffer from hallucinations and delusions as well as from significant cognitive impairments. Working memory is a critical resource for many complex cognitive operations and is a critical area of impairment in schizophrenia. Here we present our hyperfocusing hypothesis, which suggests that an overly narrow and intense focusing of attention may underlie the working memory deficits seen in schizophrenia. The hyperfocusing hypothesis also provides an account of some areas of surprisingly intact cognitive performance also seen in people with schizophrenia.
精神分裂症患者患有幻觉和妄想以及严重的认知障碍。工作记忆是许多复杂认知操作的关键资源,也是精神分裂症损伤的关键领域。在这里,我们提出了我们的过度聚焦假说,该假说认为,过于狭窄和强烈的注意力聚焦可能是精神分裂症中工作记忆缺陷的基础。过度聚焦假说还解释了精神分裂症患者在某些领域的认知表现出人意料地完好无损。

Preventing the Onset of Depressive Disorders: State of the Art and Future Directions 预防抑郁症的发作:技术现状和未来方向

The prevention of depressive disorders may be an important way to reduce the disease burden. All three types of prevention (universal, selective, and indicated) have potential but also have important limitations. Increasing evidence suggests that universal prevention, aimed at a population, may have no impact on the incidence of depression. Selective prevention, aimed at high-risk groups, is probably effective but may be mostly helpful for those who already have problems. Indicated prevention, aimed at people with depressive symptoms but no disorder, is also probably effective, but uptake is very low. Innovation in the field is very much needed, including well-powered and longitudinal trials aimed at important determinants, such as poor parenting, interparental conflict, and family instability, but also inequalities, social status, and migration.
预防抑郁症可能是减轻疾病负担的重要途径。所有三种类型的预防(普遍、选择性和指示性)都有潜力,但也有重要的局限性。越来越多的证据表明,针对人群的普遍预防可能对抑郁症的发病率没有影响。针对高危人群的选择性预防可能是有效的,但可能对那些已经有问题的人更有帮助。针对有抑郁症状但无精神障碍的人的指示性预防也可能有效,但吸收率非常低。这一领域非常需要创新,包括针对重要决定因素(如养育不良、父母间冲突和家庭不稳定)以及不平等、社会地位和移民等进行有力的纵向试验。

Anti-blackness remains endemic to the U.S. social order. As such, scholars have used theories of anti-blackness to contextualize the harm and violence that many Black youth experience in school settings. In the current article, we discuss the psychological framework of radical healing for communities of color and the Community Healing and Resistance Through Storytelling framework to highlight how schools and educational systems can be reenvisioned to support Black students’ identities, well-being, and humanity. We review how the underlying psychological principles across these healing frameworks (i.e., critical consciousness, cultural authenticity and self-knowledge, collective memory, justice, community resistance, and radical hope) can be leveraged to promote positive academic, social, and psychological outcomes among Black youth. More broadly, we discuss how these principles can be used to center the humanity and brilliance of Black children and address the structurally embedded anti-blackness in education.
反黑人仍然是美国社会秩序的普遍现象。因此,学者们利用反黑人理论来解释许多黑人青少年在学校环境中遭受的伤害和暴力。在这篇文章中,我们讨论了有色人种社区激进愈合的心理学框架和 "通过讲故事进行社区愈合和抵抗 "的框架,以强调如何重新规划学校和教育系统,以支持黑人学生的身份、福祉和人性。我们回顾了如何利用这些治疗框架的基本心理学原则(即批判意识、文化真实性和自知之明、集体记忆、正义、社区抵抗和激进希望)来促进黑人青少年取得积极的学业、社会和心理成果。更广泛地说,我们将讨论如何利用这些原则来突出黑人儿童的人性和光辉,并解决教育中结构性的反黑人问题。

Debunking Three Myths About Misinformation 揭穿关于错误信息的三个神话
IF 7.2 1区 心理学 Q1 PSYCHOLOGY, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-11-19 DOI: 10.1177/09637214241280907

Recent years have seen a surge in research on why people fall for misinformation and what can be done about it. Drawing on a framework that conceptualizes truth judgments of true and false information as a signal-detection problem, the current article identifies three inaccurate assumptions in the public and scientific discourse about misinformation: (1) People are bad at discerning true from false information, (2) partisan bias is not a driving force in judgments of misinformation, and (3) gullibility to false information is the main factor underlying inaccurate beliefs. Counter to these assumptions, we argue that (1) people are quite good at discerning true from false information, (2) partisan bias in responses to true and false information is pervasive and strong, and (3) skepticism against belief-incongruent true information is much more pronounced than gullibility to belief-congruent false information. These conclusions have significant implications for person-centered misinformation interventions to tackle inaccurate beliefs.
近年来,关于人们为何会误信虚假信息以及如何应对的研究激增。本文借鉴将真假信息的真伪判断概念化为信号检测问题的框架,指出了公众和科学界关于误导信息讨论中的三个不准确假设:(1) 人们不善于辨别真假信息;(2) 党派偏见不是误导信息判断的驱动力;(3) 轻信虚假信息是导致不准确信念的主要因素。与这些假设相反,我们认为:(1) 人们非常善于辨别真假信息;(2) 在对真假信息的反应中,党派偏见是普遍而强烈的;(3) 对信念一致的真实信息的怀疑态度比对信念一致的虚假信息的轻信态度要明显得多。这些结论对于以人为本的错误信息干预措施解决不准确的信念问题具有重要意义。

The Psychology of Poverty: Current and Future Directions 贫困心理学:当前和未来的方向

An emerging literature on “the psychology of poverty” suggests that the experience of poverty itself has psychological consequences, some of which may make escaping poverty more difficult. We synthesize the evidence base from both psychology and economics using an organizing framework comprising four sets of mechanisms: cognitive function, mental health, beliefs, and preferences. We discuss the strength of the evidence supporting both how poverty affects these four mechanisms and how these four mechanisms in turn affect poverty. As our review shows, the existing evidence has clearly established proof of concept that psychological factors exist in the experience of and response to poverty. However, there is still a lack of evidence on whether these effects are meaningful in magnitude and lead to the perpetuation of poverty. We conclude by summarizing promising future directions for research that could help close these evidence gaps, with important implications for the design of poverty reduction policies.
关于 "贫困心理 "的新兴文献表明,贫困经历本身会产生心理后果,其中一些后果可能会使脱贫变得更加困难。我们利用由认知功能、心理健康、信念和偏好四组机制组成的组织框架,综合了心理学和经济学的证据基础。我们讨论了支持贫困如何影响这四种机制以及这四种机制如何反过来影响贫困的证据的强度。正如我们的综述所示,现有的证据已经清楚地证明了心理因素存在于贫困的体验和反应中这一概念。然而,这些影响的程度是否有意义,是否会导致贫困的长期存在,仍然缺乏证据。最后,我们总结了未来有希望的研究方向,这些方向可能有助于缩小这些证据差距,并对减贫政策的设计产生重要影响。

Transformer models of language represent a step change in our ability to account for cognitive phenomena. Although the specific architecture that has garnered recent interest is quite young, many of its components have antecedents in the cognitive science literature. In this article, we start by providing an introduction to large language models aimed at a general psychological audience. We then highlight some of the antecedents, including the importance of scale, instance-based memory models, paradigmatic association and systematicity, positional encodings of serial order, and the learning of control processes. This article offers an exploration of the relationship between transformer models and their precursors, showing how they can be understood as a next phase in our understanding of cognitive processes.
语言的转换器模型代表了我们在解释认知现象能力方面的一个进步。尽管最近引起人们兴趣的具体架构还很年轻,但它的许多组成部分在认知科学文献中已有先例。在本文中,我们首先介绍了面向普通心理学读者的大型语言模型。然后,我们将重点介绍一些前因,包括规模的重要性、基于实例的记忆模型、范式关联和系统性、序列顺序的位置编码以及控制过程的学习。本文探讨了变压器模型与它们的前身之间的关系,展示了如何将它们理解为我们理解认知过程的下一个阶段。

Pivoting: Responding to the Mental Health Needs of Youth of Color With Technology Pivoting:利用技术满足有色人种青年的心理健康需求
IF 7.2 1区 心理学 Q1 PSYCHOLOGY, MULTIDISCIPLINARY Pub Date : 2024-11-12 DOI: 10.1177/09637214241280614

Mental health treatments currently available to address racial discrimination for 21 million youth of color are inadequate. Given the nascent but promising mechanisms found within behavioral health interventions via racial socialization, or the process through which children acquire knowledge about race, developing effective and scalable therapeutic strategies to contend with the stress from racism and discrimination is possible. We outline the active ingredients that facilitate behavioral change for youth psychosocial outcomes impacted by racial discrimination and describe how technology is being utilized for current and future implementation efforts. We argue that technological advancement, in addition to ecological considerations, is crucial for the reduction of structural and interpersonal risk factors negatively influencing the psychological wellness of youth of color. Technology integration across implementation and assessment will be critical, particularly given the potential for technology to further exacerbate mental health disparities.
目前,针对 2100 万有色人种青少年的种族歧视问题所提供的心理健康治疗是不够的。鉴于通过种族社会化(或儿童获得种族知识的过程)进行行为健康干预的机制初具雏形但前景广阔,开发有效且可扩展的治疗策略以应对来自种族主义和歧视的压力是可能的。我们概述了促进受种族歧视影响的青少年心理社会结果的行为改变的有效成分,并介绍了如何在当前和未来的实施工作中利用技术。我们认为,除了生态学方面的考虑,技术进步对于减少对有色人种青少年心理健康产生负面影响的结构性和人际风险因素也至关重要。技术在实施和评估过程中的整合至关重要,尤其是考虑到技术有可能进一步加剧心理健康方面的差异。

The Communicative Principle of Relevance 相关性交流原则

Any behavior humans can perform, they can performed in an “ostensive” way, that is, overtly attracting attention and providing evidence of meaning. The communicative principle of relevance is a lawlike generalization about ostensive stimuli and hence about human communication. Here I present the principle as a pair of simple and general empirical statements: one on the audience side and one on the communicator side. I also summarize recent developments: Experimental tests have proved supportive, theoretical analyses have connected the principle to evolutionary and developmental perspectives, and the principle has been used more broadly than before, far beyond the traditional domains of semantics and pragmatics. These developments consolidate the communicative principle of relevance as fundamental to understanding human interaction.
人类的任何行为都可以以 "显性 "的方式进行,即公开吸引注意力并提供意义的证据。相关性交际原则是对显性刺激的规律性概括,因此也是对人类交际的规律性概括。在此,我将这一原则作为一对简单而概括的经验陈述来介绍:一个是受众方面的,一个是传播者方面的。我还总结了最近的发展:实验测试证明了这一原则的支持性,理论分析将这一原则与进化和发展的视角联系起来,而且这一原则的应用范围比以前更广,远远超出了语义学和语用学的传统领域。这些发展巩固了相关性交际原则,使其成为理解人类互动的基础。

Conspiracy Theories: Groups, Ideology, and Status as Three Distinct Bases for Expressions in Society 阴谋论:群体、意识形态和地位是社会表达的三个不同基础

Conspiracy theories have been treated mostly as a homogeneous phenomenon in empirical research. However, to fully understand their causes and consequences, a multifaceted approach to conspiracy theories would be useful. Here, we propose an organizational framework with three facets (groups, ideology, and status) to conceptualize conspiracy theories. Based on a review of recent research, the current contribution highlights the psychological differences between (a) perceived conspiracies within or outside of one’s valued community; (b) ideological versus nonideological conspiracy beliefs, based on whether conspiracy beliefs are directly relevant for people’s core values; and (c) upward versus downward conspiracy beliefs, that is, whether the perceived conspiracy involves a relatively high- or low-status group. Finally, we discuss some distinct consequences of these facets in affecting societally consequential behaviors, such as collective action, protest, hostility, or polarization.
在实证研究中,阴谋论大多被作为一种同质现象处理。然而,要充分了解其原因和后果,对阴谋论采取多层面的研究方法是有益的。在此,我们提出了一个包含三个方面(群体、意识形态和地位)的组织框架,以对阴谋论进行概念化。在回顾近期研究的基础上,本文强调了以下几种心理差异:(a) 在个人所珍视的群体内部或外部感知到的阴谋;(b) 意识形态与非意识形态阴谋论信念,基于阴谋论信念是否与人们的核心价值观直接相关;(c) 向上与向下的阴谋论信念,即感知到的阴谋涉及地位相对较高或较低的群体。最后,我们讨论了这些方面在影响社会后果行为(如集体行动、抗议、敌意或两极分化)方面的一些不同后果。

This article spotlights a widespread problem in research and practice: Asians are commonly categorized as a monolithic group in the United States. Regarding research, my 24-year archival analysis of Psychological Science shows that most U.S. studies did not specify which Asian subgroup(s) were examined. Regarding practice, my analysis of the diversity, equity, and inclusion (DEI) webpages and latest diversity reports of S&P 100 companies finds that none of them differentiated between Asian subgroups. Such use of the generic category “Asian” is problematic because it masks important differences among Asian subgroups: (a) Of all ethnic groups in the United States, socioeconomic inequality among Asian subgroups is the highest and fastest growing; (b) U.S. studies show that East Asians (e.g., ethnic Chinese)—but not South Asians (e.g., ethnic Indians)—experience a “bamboo ceiling” in consequential contexts, including leadership attainment, academic performance in law and business schools, and starting salaries. Thus, lumping Asians together can obscure the challenges faced by certain Asian subgroups and jeopardize the attention and resources they need. More broadly, this article demonstrates the importance of differentiating between ethnic subgroups in research (e.g., theorization, surveys, and data analysis) and practice (e.g., diversity reports) to foster DEI.
本文指出了研究和实践中的一个普遍问题:在美国,亚裔通常被归类为一个单一的群体。在研究方面,我对《心理科学》(Psychological Science)24 年的档案分析表明,大多数美国研究都没有具体说明研究的是哪个(些)亚裔亚群。在实践方面,我对 S&P 100 强公司的多元化、公平与包容(DEI)网页和最新多元化报告进行了分析,发现它们都没有区分亚裔亚群。这种使用 "亚裔 "这一通用类别的做法是有问题的,因为它掩盖了亚裔亚群之间的重要差异:(a) 在美国的所有族裔群体中,亚裔亚群之间的社会经济不平等现象最为严重,而且增长速度最快;(b) 美国的研究表明,东亚人(如华裔),而不是南亚人,在社会经济方面的不平等现象最为严重、(b) 美国的研究表明,东亚人(如华裔)--而非南亚人(如印度裔)--在领导能力、法学院和商学院的学业成绩以及起薪等重要方面遇到了 "竹子天花板"。因此,将亚裔混为一谈可能会掩盖某些亚裔亚群所面临的挑战,并危及他们所需要的关注和资源。从更广泛的意义上讲,本文证明了在研究(如理论化、调查和数据分析)和实践(如多样性报告)中区分种族亚群以促进 DEI 的重要性。
