These findings also revealed no evidence in the ambiguity absent condition that scenario valence exerted any impact on recognition memory for positively and negatively disambiguated statements.
If similarity ratings represent a systematic response bias rather than a true interpretive bias, we would expect no difference between the pattern of similarity ratings of foil statements and disambiguated statements.
As can be observed in Fig. 1, for those in the ambiguity present condition, participants in the positive scenario condition rated the positively disambiguated statements as more similar in meaning to the original ambiguous test scenario, while those in the negative scenario condition rated negatively disambiguated statements as more similar in meaning to the original ambiguous test scenario.
While the direction of the effects was consistent with each of the respective scenario valence conditions, a significant difference between ratings for the positively and negatively disambiguated statements was observed only for the positive scenario condition t 1, 19) = 6.27, p < .001, and not the negative scenario condition t 1, 18) = 1.17, p = .256.256
This would be demonstrated in a significant three-way interaction reflecting the same pattern of findings described above, that was not modified further by the type of recognition memory statement (disambiguated statement vs. foil statement).
Due to the absence of morphological inflections of the subjunctive mood in Chinese, Chinese speakers use contextual information to disambiguate conditional statements from hypothetical, imaginative, or counterfactual meanings (Liu 1985; see Rafetseder and Perner 2010 in English classification).
Disambiguating the word "astro" as a crossword clue.
We further discuss strategies for disambiguating positive signals.
Try it for disambiguating a query.
Binocular stereopsis is very good at disambiguating such situations.
The antinomy with which we started can now be resolved by disambiguating.
