Interpretation bias stands as one of the three fundamental concepts within cognitive processing bias, representing the final stage in the cognitive processing continuum. When individuals encounter information or situations characterized by ambiguity and unclear meanings, some tend to attribute positive interpretations to them (positive interpretation bias), while others exhibit tendencies towards assigning neutral or negative interpretations (negative interpretation bias). This paper delineates the concept of interpretation bias, its associated research materials, paradigms, and pertinent studies. Future research endeavors should devote greater attention to positive interpretation bias, elucidating its distinctive characteristics and internal mechanisms across diverse demographic groups.
