- 摘要:
- 阅读文学小说曾经被认为只是大众消遣娱乐的方式,但最近的研究表明,阅读文学小说能够提升个体的社会认知。然而,有些研究并未发现阅读文学小说能够提升社会认知。本文首先批判性地分析支持和质疑“阅读文学小说提升社会认知”的相关证据,随后提出未来的研究将如何解决这一争论,包括开发新的研究工具和技术、明确文学与小说的操作性定义、确定读者的关键特征、创新研究设计等多个方面。
- Abstract:
- Reading literary fiction was once thought to be an entertainment,but recent research suggests that it can facilitate social cognition.However,sequential studies failed to replicate the significant advantage on social cognition scores induced by literary fiction compared to any of the other conditions.The current review critically examined evidences for and against social cognitive advantages of literary fiction and then highlight the way to a further clarification of the divergence as well as the future research.It is suggested that it is necessary to establish a list of research,including tightly-constrained operational definition of independent variables and dependent variables,innovating research design,selecting appropriate observation indicators.
