Recent research suggests that individuals from East Asian and Western cultures differ in the degree to which they hold a folk world view known as naïve dialecticism, which is characterized by tolerance for contradiction, expectation of change, and cognitive holism. The current research utilizes the Mouse Paradigm to investigate the dynamic nature of naïve dialecticism in real time by measuring individuals' fluctuations in judgment during the process of contemplation. The results showed cultural differences in dynamic measures of evaluation process: Japanese participants took more time to stabilize their thought and showed more fluctuations in their judgment than American participants. These cultural differences were fully mediated by individual differences in levels of naïve dialecticism as measured by the level of dialectical self-views. Implications for cultural psychology and the psychology of dialectical thinking are discussed.
最近的研究表明，东亚文化和西方文化背景的个体在持有一种被称为朴素辩证主义的民间世界观的程度上存在差异，这种世界观的特点是对矛盾的容忍、对变化的预期和认知整体主义。当前的研究利用鼠标范式，通过测量个体在思考过程中判断的波动，实时研究朴素辩证主义的动态本质。结果显示，在评价过程的动态测量中存在文化差异：与美国参与者相比，日本参与者需要更长时间来稳定他们的思维，并且在判断上表现出更多的波动。这些文化差异完全由辩证自我观水平所衡量的朴素辩证主义水平的个体差异所介导。文中还讨论了对文化心理学和辩证思维心理学的启示。
