The study of intellectual humility (IH), which is gaining increasing interest among cognitive scientists, has been dominated by a focus on individuals. We propose that IH operates at the collective level as the tendency of a collective's members to attend to each other's intellectual limitations and the limitations of their collective cognitive efforts. Given people's propensity to better recognize others' limitations than their own, IH may be more readily achievable in collectives than individuals. We describe the socio-cognitive dynamics that can interfere with collective IH and offer the solution of building intellectually humbling environments that create a culture of IH that can outlast the given membership of a collective. We conclude with promising research directions.
对认知谦逊（IH）的研究在认知科学家当中越来越受关注，且一直以聚焦个体为主。我们提出，认知谦逊在集体层面发挥作用，表现为集体成员关注彼此的智力局限以及他们集体认知努力的局限的倾向。鉴于人们更倾向于认识到他人而非自己的局限，认知谦逊在集体中可能比在个体中更容易实现。我们描述了可能干扰集体认知谦逊的社会认知动态，并提出构建能营造认知谦逊文化的环境这一解决方案，这种文化能够在集体成员更迭后依然存续。我们最后给出了有前景的研究方向。
