This study used a laboratory-based paradigm to investigate social influences on participants' susceptibility to misleading suggestions. Participants viewed a video clip of an action sequence with one or more peers, and then were required to discuss the event with the co-witness or with the group of co-witnesses. During the discussion a confederate, posing as a peer, presented misinformation about central and peripheral features of the co-witnessed event. Results indicated that participants were more susceptible to misleading suggestions during one-on-one discussions than during group discussions. In addition, participants were susceptible to misleading suggestions about central features of the witnessed event, although to a lesser extent than they were susceptible to misleading suggestions about peripheral features.
本研究采用基于实验室的范式来调查社会因素对参与者受误导性暗示影响的易感性。参与者观看一段有一个或多个同伴的动作序列视频片段，然后被要求与共同目击者或共同目击者群体讨论该事件。在讨论过程中，一名假扮成同伴的同谋提供了关于共同目睹事件的核心和外围特征的错误信息。结果表明，与小组讨论相比，参与者在一对一讨论中更容易受到误导性暗示的影响。此外，参与者容易受到关于目睹事件核心特征的误导性暗示，尽管其程度低于他们受到关于外围特征的误导性暗示的程度。
