Research on calibration remains a popular line of inquiry. Calibration is the degree of fit between a person's judgment of performance and his or her actual performance. Given the continued interest in this topic, the questions posed in this article are fruitful directions to pursue to help address gaps in calibration research. In this article, we have identified six research directions that if productively pursued, could greatly expand our knowledge of calibration. The six research directions are: (a) what are the effects of varying the anchoring mechanisms from which calibration judgments are made, (b) how does calibration accuracy differ as a function of incentives and task authenticity, (c) how do students self-report the basis of their calibration judgments, (d) how do group interactions and social comparisons affect calibration accuracy, (e) what is the relation between absolute and relative accuracy, and (f) to what extent does calibration accuracy predict achievement? To help point the way to where we go from here in calibration research, we provide these research questions, propose research methods designed to address them, and identify prior, related studies that have shown promise in leading the way to fill these gaps in the literature.
校准研究仍然是一个热门的研究方向。校准是指一个人对表现的判断与他或她的实际表现之间的契合程度。鉴于对该主题的持续关注，本文提出的问题是有助于填补校准研究空白的富有成效的探索方向。在本文中，我们确定了六个研究方向，如果能有效地进行探索，可能会极大地扩展我们对校准的认识。这六个研究方向是：（a）改变做出校准判断所依据的锚定机制会产生什么影响，（b）校准准确性如何因激励措施和任务真实性而有所不同，（c）学生如何自我报告他们校准判断的依据，（d）群体互动和社会比较如何影响校准准确性，（e）绝对准确性和相对准确性之间的关系是什么，以及（f）校准准确性在多大程度上能够预测成就？为了帮助指明校准研究从这里出发的方向，我们提出这些研究问题，提出旨在解决这些问题的研究方法，并识别先前相关的、在引领填补文献空白方面已显示出前景的研究。
