In the proposed project it is to be examined how laypersons deal with conflicting scientific expert information on the internet. A widespread variety of internet research is experimentally simulated: Laypersons browse multiple, partly conflicting text documents for expert information in order to reach an informed decision. By coming across conflicting information, the central questions arise under which circumstances laypersons recognize intertextual conflicts and how they handle this paradoxical challenge in order to reach a decision about knowledge claims that surpass their own everyday understanding. The studies predominantly use conflicting claims from the fields of medicine and climate change. In the third project phase we intensify our examination of the resources which laypersons use to process and resolve conflicts. Thereby we differentiate between conflict detection, regulation and resolution as elaborated in our Content-Source-Integration (CSI) Model. In the first series of four studies the role of source characteristics, while dealing with conflicts, is examined. We focus on decompounding the source characteristics which essentially lead to the attribution of epistemic trust. Thereby we investigate the interaction of various source characteristics on conflict resolution as well as the interplay of source characteristics with text-inherent features. In addition, the influence of subject- and value-related prior beliefs on conflict detection, regulation and resolution is examined in another series of three studies. We explore to what extent laypersons use prior beliefs to resolve conflicts, and investigate how their subject- and value-related beliefs are transmitted via the relevance of the information which influences both conflict detection and regulation. Two additional studies are to clarify the role of laypeoples subjective assumptions about science (Folk Philosophy/Sociology of Science) and the interplay of the different resources used in the resolution of scientific conflicts. On a theoretical level the project aims for an extension of the Documents Model Framework through the CSI Model and for the extension of the Theory of the Division of Cognitive Labor, especially in regards to the handling of conflicting scientific evidence.

在拟议的项目中，将审查外行如何处理互联网上相互矛盾的科学专家信息。实验模拟了各种各样的互联网研究：外行人浏览多个部分冲突的文本文件，以获得专家信息，以达成明智的决定。通过遇到相互冲突的信息，中心问题出现在什么情况下，外行认识到互文冲突，以及他们如何处理这一矛盾的挑战，以达到一个决定的知识主张，超越自己的日常理解。这些研究主要使用来自医学和气候变化领域的相互矛盾的说法。在项目的第三阶段，我们加强了对非专业人员用来处理和解决冲突的资源的审查。因此，我们区分冲突检测，监管和解决，如我们的内容源集成（CSI）模型中所阐述的。在第一系列的四项研究的作用，来源的特点，而处理冲突，检查。我们重点分解了认知信任的来源特征，这些特征从本质上导致了认知信任的归属。因此，我们调查的冲突解决的各种源特性的相互作用，以及源特性与文本固有的特征的相互作用。此外，在另一系列的三项研究中，主题和价值相关的先验信念对冲突检测，调节和解决的影响进行了研究。我们探讨在何种程度上外行使用以前的信念来解决冲突，并调查他们的主题和价值相关的信念是如何通过相关的信息，影响冲突检测和监管的传输。另外两项研究是为了澄清外行人对科学的主观假设（民间哲学/科学社会学）的作用和在解决科学冲突中使用的不同资源的相互作用。在理论层面上，该项目旨在通过CSI模型扩展文档模型框架，并扩展认知劳动分工理论，特别是在处理相互矛盾的科学证据方面。
