Anxiety and Advice-Seeking Behavioral Data from Eight Experiments

Eight experiments investigate how anxiety influences advice-seeking and advice-taking behaviors. The data likely contains results from studies comparing anxious and neutral emotional states, mediated by self-confidence and information processing. The research was authored by Francesca Gino and published by Harvard University Press.

Use Cases

• Modeling the relationship between anxiety and advice-seeking based on experimental results
• Analyzing the mediating role of self-confidence on advice reliance as described
• Investigating the failure to discriminate between good and bad advice under anxiety
• Comparing the effects of anxiety to other negative emotions on advice-taking behavior

Strengths

• Data is derived from eight distinct experiments, suggesting a multi-study foundation
• Examines specific mediators like self-confidence and information processing
• Compares anxiety to other negatively-valenced emotions for generalization testing

Limitations

• Column-level documentation is absent; field semantics must be inferred after download
• Row count is unknown, which may limit suitability assessment
• Data may reflect bias inherent to the experimental design and participant pool
