文化紧密度指数的有效性以及与创造力和秩序的联系都是虚假的--对杰克逊等人的评论
Both the validity of the cultural tightness index and the association with creativity and order are spurious -- a comment on Jackson et al
摘要：
最近发表在《自然人类行为》上的一项研究表明，美国文化的历史松散与更高的创造力和更低的秩序之间的权衡有关。为此，Jackson等人基于Google Books Ngram语料库生成了一个文化紧密度的语言学指数，并使用该指数显示美国规范在1800年至2000年之间放松。虽然我们对美国文化的潜在松动以及与创造力/秩序的统计关联仍然不可知，但我们在这里表明，杰克逊等人使用的方法既不适合测试指数的有效性，也不适合建立与创造力/秩序的可能关系。
英文摘要：
It was recently suggested in a study published in Nature Human Behaviour that the historical loosening of American culture was associated with a trade-off between higher creativity and lower order. To this end, Jackson et al. generate a linguistic index of cultural tightness based on the Google Books Ngram corpus and use this index to show that American norms loosened between 1800 and 2000. While we remain agnostic toward a potential loosening of American culture and a statistical association with creativity/order, we show here that the methods used by Jackson et al. are neither suitable for testing the validity of the index nor for establishing possible relationships with creativity/order.
