心理学关于谎言的研究分为两个主要的方向,其中之一就是探究普通人在判断他人是否说谎时的心理过程.以及哪些因素会影响人们的判断。早期解释谎言判断的心理学理论包括基本归因错误、分心假设和情境熟悉性假设。而近来双加工理论得到越来越多的关注,并在动机、认知需求、判断时间、背景信息、探测效应和怀疑等方面的研究中得到了许多数据支持。目前对于谎言判断的研究存在许多争议,例如双加工是否是连续单维的过程,人们是否具有判断谎言的能力,未来的研究可以围绕这些方面开展。
To explore the process of deception judgement of people and the factors which can influence this process is one of the most important aspects in fields of lying and deception detection. Earlier theories about deception judgement, such as fundamental attribution error, distraction hypothesis, and situational familiarity hypothesis, all have some limitations. Recently, dual-process theory has attracted much more attentions, and are supported by many studies. Future studies should answer whether the dual-process actually is a unimodel, and whether people have the ability to detect deception.
