Reflection-Philosophy Order Effects and Correlations Across Samples

Authors: N Byrd

Year: 2025

Published in: Byrd, N. (2025). Reflection-Philosophy Order Effects and Correlations Across Samples. Analysis. DOI: 10.1093/analys/anaf015. https://osf.io/preprints/psyarxiv/y8sdm

Reflective reasoning correlates with certain philosophical decisions, and the study suggests bidirectional causal paths between reflection and philosophy, with test order effects influencing reflection test outcomes but not philosophical decisions.

Methods: Participants from four sources (Amazon Mechanical Turk, CloudResearch, Prolific, and a university) were tested on reflective reasoning and their decisions on 10 philosophical thought experiments.

Key Findings: Impact of reflective reasoning on philosophical decisions and the effect of test order on reflection and philosophy outcomes.

Unlocking creativity with Artificial Intelligence: Field and experimental evidence on the Goldilocks (curvilinear) effect of human-AI collaboration.

Authors: HCB Huang

Year: 2025

Published in: Journal of Experimental Psychology: General, 2025 - psycnet.apa.org

Institution: University of British Columbia

Research Area: Human-AI Collaboration, Creativity, Experimental Psychology

Discipline: Experimental Psychology

Moderate levels of human-AI collaboration enhance creative performance due to increased knowledge diversity, but excessive or minimal involvement diminishes this effect.

Methods: Two experiments assigned 139 business professionals and 319 working adults to collaborate with ChatGPT at varying levels, and a follow-up survey among 188 creative industry workers was conducted to replicate findings.

Key Findings: The impact of varying degrees of human-AI collaboration on creative performance, evaluated by human judges, entrepreneurs, and AI metrics.

No Evidence of Experimenter Demand Effects in Three Online Psychology Experiments

Authors: L Woodley, X Roberts-Gaal, R Calcott, F Cushman

Year: 2025

Published in: files.osf.io

Institution: Harvard University

Research Area: Experimental Psychology, Research Methods, Replication Studies

Discipline: Psychology, Social Science

Explicit demand cues do not alter participant behavior, judgments, or attitudes in online psychology experiments, despite participants adjusting their beliefs about study hypotheses.

Methods: Three preregistered experiments on Prolific tested the impact of explicit demand cues on participant behavior using a dictator game, a moral dilemma vignette, and a group attitude intervention. Participants were randomly assigned to receive information about the study hypothesis or no information.

Key Findings: Whether explicit demand cues influence behavior, judgments, or attitudes in online psychology studies.
