本研究考察了兴奋剂药物对26名注意缺陷多动障碍男孩的自我评价和任务归因的影响。每个男孩进行两次连续的性能任务,一次是在药物治疗期间,一次是在安慰剂期间。在完成任务后,男孩们被问到一系列关于他们对自己表现的自我评价和归因的问题。获得了两个值得注意的结果。首先,与安慰剂相比,药物治疗增加了男孩的自我评价与他们的表现之间的一致性。其次,这些男孩并没有像其他人预测的那样,经常用药物来解释他们的表现。事实上,男孩们选择药物作为他们成功的解释,远远少于努力或能力。
The present study examined the effects of stimulant medication on the self-evaluations of and attributions for task performance of 26 attention-deficit hyperactivity disordered boys. Each boy performed a continuous performance task twice, once while on medication and once while on placebo. Immediately following the completion of the task, the boys were asked a series of questions concerning their self-evaluations of, and attributions for, their performance. Two findings of note were obtained. First, medication, compared with placebo, increased the correspondence between the boys' self-evaluations and their performance. Second, the boys did not use medication as a frequent explanation for their performance, as others have predicted. In fact, the boys picked medication as an explanation for their successes significantly less often than either effort or ability.
