Replication and extension of framing effects to compliance with health behaviors during pandemics, Otterbring et al. (2021). Outcome recorded: successful. we show that the classic Asian Disease Problem (Tversy and Kahneman, 1981) is replicable, regardless of disease type (real vs. hypothetical). View paper
Loss aversion, the endowment effect, and gain-loss framing shape preferences for noninstrumental information, Litovsky et al. (2022). Outcome recorded: successful. Study 2 shows that people exhibit the endowment effect for noninstrumental information, and so value information more, simply by virtue of "owning" it. View paper
Many Labs 2: Investigating Variation in Replicability Across Samples and Settings, Klein et al. (2018). Outcome recorded: successful. In the aggregate replication sample (N = 7,228), participants were more likely to say that they would go to the other branch when the cheap item was on sale (49%) than when the costly item was on sale (32%; p = 1.01e−50, d = 0.40, 95% CI = [0.35, 0.45]; OR = 2.06, 95% CI = [1.87, 2.27]). These resul View paper
Investigating Variation in Replicability, Klein et al. (2014). Outcome recorded: successful. To test for replication we conducted a chi-square analysis on program choice with condition (gain-frame or loss-frame) as a between-subjects variable: χ2(1) = 516.41, p < .0001, d = .60 View paper
