研究了在职经验在培养识破欺骗技能方面的作用。研究人员对三个样本进行了欺骗检测测试,每个样本超过100人:一组大学生,他们在检测欺骗方面没有特殊的经验;一群联邦执法培训计划的新成员,他们在检测欺骗方面有一些有限的工作经验;还有一群先进的联邦执法人员,他们有多年的工作经验,在这些工作中,发现欺骗是非常重要的。尽管官员样本对他们对欺骗行为的判断比学生更有信心,但他们并不比学生更准确。从测试的前半部分到后半部分,三组都没有表现出明显的欺骗检测成功率提高;然而,随着测试的深入,高级军官对自己的表现越来越有信心。对准确性和信心之间关系的相关分析提供了进一步的证据,证明经验并不能提高人们对自己判断的准确性或不准确性的认识。本研究的结果与其他类型的专业决策者(如临床心理学家)的研究结果进行了比较,并讨论了经验在决策中的作用的几个理论观点。
The role of on‐the‐job experience in fostering skill at detecting deception was examined. A deception‐detection test was administered to three samples of more than 100 subjects each: a group of undergraduates with no special experiences at detecting deceit; a group of new recruits to a federal law enforcement training program, who had some limited on‐the‐job experience at detecting deceit; and a group of advanced federal law enforcement officers, with years of experience working at jobs in which the detection of deception is very important. Although the officer samples were more confident about their judgments of deceptiveness than were the students, they were no more accurate than the students. None of the three groups showed a significant improvement in deception‐detection success from the first half to the second half of the test; however, the advanced officers felt increasingly confident about their performance as they progressed through the test. Correlational analyses of the relationship between accuracy and confidence provided further evidence that experience does not improve people's awareness oi the accuracy or inaccuracy of their judgments. The findings from this research are compared to the results of research on other kinds of professional decision‐makers (e.g., clinical psychologists), and several theoretical perspectives on the role of experience in decision making are discussed.
