Abstract
En 中文
Four experiments investigated performance differences in dynamic spatial reasoning that reflect differences in cognitive strategies. In Experiment 1, verbal protocols obtained during execution of the arrival-time task revealed a systematic relationship between performance and strategy use. High-performance subjects were more likely than low-performance subjects to use and integrate key information about object velocity and travel distance. Experiment 2 and 3 further showed that verbal and visual feedback, respectively, improve judgment accuracy when stimulus conditions necessitate the integration of object velocity and travel distance information, but not when distance information alone is sufficient to make the judgment. Experiment 4 established the stability of the feedback effects and demonstrated that individual differences in velocity-judgment ability predict the capacity to profit from feedback. The results suggest a tendency to neglect information regarding relative object velocity when making judgments of arrival-time.
