模糊厌恶现象表明，人们更喜欢提供精确而不是不精确的成功机会的选项。然而，过去的工作，人们的反应，在健康治疗的情况下，模糊寻求，而不是厌恶。目前的工作解决这些发现是否反映了一个广泛的趋势，在健康治疗的情况下，或是否模糊的具体属性发挥了重要作用的模糊性。在三项研究中，人们在两种潜在概率相似的治疗方案中做出选择，只是其中一种方案的概率存在模糊性。对歧义的归因在结果中起着重要的作用。例如，当与模糊处理相关的概率范围归因于不同研究产生不同结果的事实时，参与者倾向于表现出模糊厌恶或无所谓。然而，当范围归因于参与者可以控制的东西时（例如，定期涂抹乳霜）或他们过于乐观的事情（例如，他们的免疫系统功能），参与者倾向于表现出模糊寻求。卫生专业人员应该注意人们在选择治疗方法时如何解释和使用有关模糊性的信息。
The phenomenon of ambiguity aversion suggests that people prefer options that offer precisely rather than imprecisely known chances of success. However, past work on people's responses to ambiguity in health treatment contexts found ambiguity seeking rather than aversion. The present work addressed whether such findings reflected a broad tendency for ambiguity seeking in health treatment contexts or whether specific attributions for ambiguity play a substantial role. In three studies, people choose between two treatment options that involved similar underlying probabilities, except that the probabilities for one option involved ambiguity. The attributions offered for the ambiguity played an important role in the results. For example, when the range of probabilities associated with an ambiguous treatment was attributed to the fact that different studies yield different results, participants tended to show ambiguity aversion or indifference. However, when the range was attributed to something that participants could control (e.g., regular application of a cream) or something about which they were overoptimistic (e.g., their immune system function), participants tended to show ambiguity seeking. Health professionals should be mindful of how people will interpret and use information about ambiguity when choosing among treatments.
