The effect of emotional valence on intertemporal choice: A three-level meta-analysis
The interaction mechanism between emotions and intertemporal choice is an important issue in the field of behavioral decision-making. In our study, we systematically integrated 61 studies (total number of subjects = 15,575; total number of effects = 212) by classifying emotional valence into three categories: positive, negative, and mixed-valence. We employed a three-level random effects model for our analysis. The results indicated that positive emotions and mixed-valence emotions significantly predicted individual patience in intertemporal choice. In contrast, negative emotions exhibited a borderline significant effect in negatively predicting patience in decision-making. Moderation analyses revealed that age, emotion induction tasks, and emotional categories played significant moderating roles in the impact of negative emotions on intertemporal choice. After controlling for multicollinearity, the moderating effect of the emotion induction tasks was no longer significant. In summary, this study systematically integrates the differential effects of various valence emotions on intertemporal choice from previous research and explores the sources of heterogeneity, providing comprehensive and objective quantitative evidence to enhance the emotion-decision theoretical framework.
期刊介绍:
Personality and Individual Differences is devoted to the publication of articles (experimental, theoretical, review) which aim to integrate as far as possible the major factors of personality with empirical paradigms from experimental, physiological, animal, clinical, educational, criminological or industrial psychology or to seek an explanation for the causes and major determinants of individual differences in concepts derived from these disciplines. The editors are concerned with both genetic and environmental causes, and they are particularly interested in possible interaction effects.
