目前的研究考察了注意力不集中对依从研究任务、数据质量、相关分析、实验操作和统计能力的不利影响。结果表明，3-9%的被调查者参与了高度注意力不集中的回答，形成了与先前研究一致的潜在类别，这些类别融合了现有指标（如长串指数、多变量异常值、奇偶一致性、心理测量同义词和反义词）和新的注意力不集中测量指标（注意反应量表和定向问题量表）。注意力不集中的受访者提供的自我报告数据质量明显较差，足以模糊有意义的回归结果以及实验操作的影响。筛选出注意力不集中的受访者提高了统计能力，有助于减轻注意力不集中引起的能力和估计效应大小的显著下降。(C) 2013出版的爱思唯尔公司。
The current studies examined the adverse effects of inattentive responding on compliance with study tasks, data quality, correlational analyses, experimental manipulations, and statistical power. Results suggested that 3-9% of respondents engaged in highly inattentive responding, forming latent classes consistent with prior work that converged across existing indices (e.g., long-string index, multivariate outliers, even-odd consistency, psychometric synonyms and antonyms) and new measures of inattention (the Attentive Responding Scale and the Directed Questions Scale). Inattentive respondents provided self-report data of markedly poorer quality, sufficient to obscure meaningful regression results as well as the effects of experimental manipulations. Screening out inattentive respondents improved statistical power, helping to mitigate the notable drops in power and estimated effect sizes caused by inattention. (C) 2013 Published by Elsevier Inc.
