问题 We're fairly good at judging people based on first impressions, thin slices of experience ranging from a glimpse of a photo to a five-minute interaction, and deliberation can be not only extraneous but intrusive. In one study of the ability she dubbed "thin slicing", the late psychologist Nalini Ambady asked participants to watch silent 10-second video clips of professors and to rate the instructor's overall effectiveness. Their ratings correlated strongly with students end-of-semester ratings. Another set of participants had to count backward from 1,000 by nines as they watched the clips, occupying their conscious working memory. Their ratings were just as accurate, demonstrating the intuitive nature of the social processing. Critically, another group was asked to spend a minute writing down reasons for their judgment,before giving the rating. Accuracy dropped dramatically. Ambady suspected that deliberation focused them on vivid but misleading cues, such as certain gestures of utterances, rather than letting the complex interplay of subtle signals form a holistic impression. She found similar interference when participants watched 15-second clips of pairs of people and judged whether they were strangers, friends, or dating partners. Other research shows we're better at detecting deception and sexual orientation from thin slices when we rely on intuition instead of reflection. "It's as if you're driving a stick shift, " says Judith Hall, a psychologist at Northeastern University, "and if you start thinking about it too much, you can't remember what you're doing. But if you go on automatic pilot, you're fine. Much of our social life is like that. " Thinking too much can also harm our ability to form preferences College students' ratings of strawberry jams and college courses aligned better with experts' opinions when the students weren't asked to analyze their rationale. And people made car-buying decisions that were both objectively better and more personally satisfying when asked to focus on their feelings rather than on details, but only if the decision was complex--when they had a lot of information to process. Intuition's special powers are unleashed only in certain circumstances. In one study, participants completed a battery of eight tasks, including four that tapped reflective thinking (discerning rules, comprehending vocabulary) and four that tapped intuition and creativity (generating new products or figures of speech). Then they rated the degree to which they had used intuition ("gut feelings, ""hunches, " "my heart" ). Use of their gut hurt their performance on the first four tasks, as expected,and helped them on the rest. Sometimes the heart is smarter than the head. Nalini Ambady's study deals with_______.A.instructor-student interactionB.the power of people's memoryC.the reliability of first impressionsD.people's ability to influence others

选项 A.instructor-student interaction
B.the power of people's memory
C.the reliability of first impressions
D.people's ability to influence others

答案 C

解析 根据题干关键词Nalini Ambady定位至原文第一段第一句“We’re fairly good atjud舀ng people based on first impressions,thin slices of experience ranging from a glimpse of a photo toa five—minute interaction,and deliberation can be not only extraneous but intrusive”,我们相当擅长根据第一印象、从一张照片到五分钟互动的一小段经验来评判人们,而这种评判不仅是无关紧要的,而且是先入为主的。Nalini Ambady研究学生在观看短片后对老师的看法与上过一学期课之后的学生对老师的看法是否一致,以此说明人的直觉是否与实际情况相符合,即其研究意在证明第一印象的可靠性。C项“第一印象的可信度”与文章表述一致,故选C。A项“讲师学生互动”、B项“人们记忆的力量”、D项“人们影响他人的能力”在原文中均未提及,故均排除。
