It’s decided: decisive people no more accurate than self-doubters。

Research finds only difference between so-called action-oriented and state-oriented people is confidence

By Nicola Davis

It’s a trait best seen in the eager pub quizzer – a tendency to leap to an answer without a shadow of a doubt.

Now researchers have suggested that while people who have little difficulty making decisions are more confident in their choices, they are no more accurate than those who feel more torn.

Writing in the journal Plos One, researchers revealed how they conducted experiments to explore potential differences between people who tend to be decisive, known as action-oriented people, and those who struggle to commit to a choice, known as state-oriented people.

“What we found is that confidence was the only thing that was different,” said Dr Wojciech Zajkowski, the first author of the research, who is now based at the Riken social decision science laboratory in Japan.

38話で日本文化の中の「わび」について、いろいろ考えてみました。この「わび」とセットでよく使われるのが「さび」という言葉です。「さびしい」じゃなくて「さび」。「自転車（じてんしゃ）が雨でさびた～」の「さびる」じゃなくて「さび」。まあ、どちらもいい意味ではありません。価値観（かちかん values）としての「さび」も、見た目（みため appearance )が　よくない場合に使われます。古くて壊（こわ）れそうです。そんなお茶碗（ちゃわん　cups for the tea ceremony )を見て、私が感（かん）じたことをお話します。最後（さいご）にちょっと、元気の出ることも言ってます。
