在这篇文章中，我们完善了设计的上下文转移实验，这在语境主义者的辩论中发挥了核心作用，我们受到了大量的场景，涉及不同类型的表达兴趣的语境主义者，包括“知道”和颜色形容词，如“绿色”，实验调查。我们的实验（i）揭示了语境变化对句子使用评价的影响，从而推翻了以前实验研究中没有报道的结果（所谓的空结果），（ii）揭示了有利于积极而不是消极句子的“真理偏见”的证据，以及（iii）揭示了以前未被注意的区别的强度的上下文效果所显示的场景涉及知识归属和场景有关的颜色和其他杂项场景
In this article we refine the design of context shifting experiments, which play a central role in contextualist debates, and we subject a large number of scenarios involving different types of expressions of interest to contextualists, including ‘know’ and color adjectives like ‘green’, to experimental investigation. Our experiment (i) reveals an effect of changing contexts on the evaluation of uses of the sentences that we examine, thereby overturning the absence of results reported in previous experimental studies (so-called null results), (ii) uncovers evidence for a ‘truth bias' in favor of positive over negative sentences, and (iii) reveals previously unnoticed distinctions between the strength of the contextual effects displayed by scenarios involving knowledge ascriptions and scenarios concerning color and other miscellaneous scenarios.
