To investigate that, they ran a follow-up experiment which had two different descriptions ofthe dead David. One said he had simply passed away.
为了研究这个假设,他们又进行了一个后续实验,这次对于大卫的死亡有两个不同版本的描述。
The other directed the participant s attention to the corpse. It read, After being embalmed atthe morgue, he was buried in the local cemetery.
一个只说他去世了。另一个则使被试联想到大卫的尸体,它写到: 大卫的尸体在太平间作过防腐处理后,便被埋葬在当地的公墓中。
David now lies in a coffin underground. No ambiguity there.
如今他正躺在地下的一个棺材中。 描述非常清晰,毫不含糊。
In this follow-up study participants were also asked to rate how religious they were.
在后续实验里,被试也被要求对自己的宗教虔诚度作出评价。
Once again, the vegetative David was seen to have less mind than the David who had passed away .
这次,植物人大卫的心智活动仍然被认为少于 去世 的大卫。
This was equally true, regardless of how religious a participant said he was.
不论被试对自己的宗教虔诚度评价有多高,结果仍是如此。
