分别对7名本科生和4名高中生进行了2次实验，通过评估反馈是否能使s学会生成随机序列，来检验人们不能随机行为这一被广泛接受的结论。在这两个实验中，实验对象被要求在计算机终端的键盘上生成2个数字的随机序列。在实验1中，来自5个描述符的反馈；在经验II中，反馈来自10。结果表明，在基线期间，所有Ss序列与随机序列存在显著差异，从而重复了文献的发现。但是，当从5个或10个统计描述符中获得反馈时，根据这些统计数据，s学会了从计算机生成的随机数中生成无法区分的序列。结果表明，随机行为是可以学习的。（51 ref）（PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA，版权所有）
Conducted 2 experiments with 7 undergraduates and 4 high school students, respectively, to test the widely accepted conclusion that people are unable to behave randomly by evaluating whether feedback would enable Ss to learn to generate random sequences. In both experiments, Ss were asked to generate random sequences of 2 numbers on the keyboard of a computer terminal. In Exp I, feedback was given from 5 descriptors; in Exp II, feedback was given from 10. Results indicate that during baseline, all Ss' sequences differed significantly from random, thereby replicating the findings of the literature. But when given feedback from 5 or 10 statistical descriptors, the Ss learned to generate sequences that were indistinguishable, according to these statistics, from computer-generated random numbers. It is concluded that randomlike behavior can be learned.(51 ref)(PsycINFO Database Record (c) 2016 APA, all rights reserved)
