在这里报告的研究中，我们调查了正念冥想对沉没成本偏见的去偏见效果。我们进行了四项研究（一项相关性研究和三项实验性研究）;结果表明，增加正念可以减少让无法收回的先前成本影响当前决策的倾向。研究1作为一个初始的相关性证明特质正念和抵抗沉没成本偏见之间的正相关关系。研究2a和2b是实验室实验，检验正念-冥想诱导对增加对沉没成本偏见的抵抗力的影响。在研究3中，我们研究了时间焦点和负面影响的中介机制，我们发现，沉没成本偏差通过将时间焦点从未来和过去移开以及减少状态负面影响而减弱，这两种方式都是通过正念冥想完成的。
In the research reported here, we investigated the debiasing effect of mindfulness meditation on the sunk-cost bias. We conducted four studies (one correlational and three experimental); the results suggest that increased mindfulness reduces the tendency to allow unrecoverable prior costs to influence current decisions. Study 1 served as an initial correlational demonstration of the positive relationship between trait mindfulness and resistance to the sunk-cost bias. Studies 2a and 2b were laboratory experiments examining the effect of a mindfulness-meditation induction on increased resistance to the sunk-cost bias. In Study 3, we examined the mediating mechanisms of temporal focus and negative affect, and we found that the sunk-cost bias was attenuated by drawing one's temporal focus away from the future and past and by reducing state negative affect, both of which were accomplished through mindfulness meditation.
