Replications

• Risky Therefore Not Beneficial: Replication and Extension of Finucane et al.'s (2000) Affect Heuristic Experiment, Efendić et al. (2021). Social Psychological and Personality Science. Outcome recorded: successful. In two well-powered studies, using a more stringent analytic strategy, we replicated the original finding. We observed a strong negative relationship between judgments of risks and benefits across three technologies, although we do find that there was no change in risks when highlighting low benefits. Outcome read from the abstract. View paper
