Previous researchers have detected a phenomenon called communication mode preference (CMP) paradox (i.e., preferring to receive information about the probabilities of chance events numerically but convey such information verbally) among native English speakers (I. Erev & B. L. Cohen, 1990; T. S. Wallsten, D. V. Budescu, R. Zwick, & S. M. Kemp, 1993). Given the increasing evidence of systematic cross-cultural differences in judgment and decision making involving probabilities, the purpose of the present study was to explore whether the CMP paradox is robust enough to survive in the Chinesespeaking culture in which nonprobabilistic thinking appears to occur more frequently. The authors asked 370 native Chinese speakers about their preferences for verbal and numerical probability communications in both a general and weather-forecasting context. The results show that the CMP paradox phenomenon occurs in the Chinese culture and appears to be even more pronounced than in American English cultural settings.
