在两个实验中，我们调查了人们在推理情感内容和中性内容时是否有不同的推理方式。我们给参与者一个条件推理任务（“如果p，那么q”），并改变了用作p和q的项目的情感。参与者被要求根据这些陈述做出推论。在实验1中，我们比较了包括预先存在的情感和中性词的语句。在实验2中，我们实验性地操纵最初中性词的经典条件反射的情绪。在这两个实验中，情绪影响了参与者的反应。与中性陈述相比，他们更有可能在回应情绪化陈述时做出无效推断。
In two experiments, we investigated whether people reason differently when they reason about emotional and neutral contents. We gave participants a conditional reasoning task ("If p, then q") and varied the emotionality of the items used as p and q. Participants were asked to draw inferences based on these statements. In Experiment 1, we compared statements including preexisting emotional and neutral words. In Experiment 2, we experimentally manipulated the emotionality of initially neutral words using classical conditioning. In both experiments, emotionality affected participants' responses. They were more likely to draw invalid inferences in response to emotional compared with neutral statements.
