Verbal overshadowing
原声例句
经济学人-商业 A well-established psychological phenomenon known as " verbal overshadowing" captures the danger of overthinking things: people are more likely to misidentify someone in a line-up if they have spent time writing a description of their faces. “语词遮蔽效应”这种广为人知的心理现象充分体现了过度思考有多危险：如果人们花时间写下对某人的脸部描述，就更有可能认错人。
英语百科
Verbal overshadowingVerbal overshadowing is the negative effect of verbal descriptions upon visual recognition. For example, witnesses who take notes or make verbal descriptions are found to be less able to recognise suspects visually in an identity parade. This effect was originally reported by Jonathan Schooler & Tonya Engster-Schooler (1990) The effect has been found in multiple studies but its strength has varied significantly. A recent international replication effort demonstrated that the effect is quite robust but highly sensitive to changes in the timing parameters. The exact mechanism is not certain and there are several hypotheses. One is that the use of written or verbal language interferes with visual memory. Another is that the process of verbal reasoning changes the level of the criteria which determine recognition. |
