Replications

• The Dark Versus Bright Side of a Smiley: A Preregistered Replication of Experiment 3 in Glikson et al. (2018) "The Dark Side of a Smiley", Lai & Mayiwar (2023). Collabra: Psychology. Outcome recorded: failed. The authors of the original study reported support for their proposition that [...] the use of smileys may backfire and produce less favorable perceptions of competence in a formal work-related setting, yet more favorable perceptions of warmth in an informal work-related setting. Our results, in contrast, indicated that smileys produce a negative effect on perceptions of competence and a positive effect on perceptions of warmth, regardless of the level of formality. Outcome read from the abstract. View paper
