Associations of fear, anger, happiness, and hope with risk judgments: Revisiting appraisal-tendency framework with a replication and extensions registered report of Lerner and Keltner (2001).
The appraisal-tendency framework proposed that specific emotions predispose individuals to appraise future events corresponding to the core appraisal themes of the emotions. In a registered report with a U.S. American online Amazon Mechanical Turk CloudResearch sample (N = 780), we conducted an independent close replication of Experiments 1, 2, and 3 in Lerner and Keltner (2001).
The link between Empathy and Forgiveness: Replication and extensions Registered Report of McCullough et al. (1997)'s Study 1
ABSTRACT McCullough et al. [McCullough, M. E., Worthington, E. L., & Rachal, K. C. (1997). Interpersonal Forgiving in Close Relationships. Journal of Personality and Social Psychology, 73(2), 321–336.] demonstrated that in situations of feeling hurt by an offender, empathy towards the offender is positively associated with forgiving the offender, which in turn is positively associated with conciliatory behaviour and negatively associated with avoidance behaviour.
The Associations Between Emotions, Evaluations, and Risk
The appraisal-tendency framework suggested that emotions are associated with judgments in different ways. Framework views emotions as more complex than mere positive-negative valence view. We revisited a seminal article by Lerner and Keltner (2000) with a replication and extension of their work. We found support for some key predictions, yet not for all, suggesting a more nuanced view.

Frankly, We Do Give a Damn
This work explores the relationship between profanity and honesty to address the paradoxical perspectives in the existing literature. Study 1 examined the relationship between profanity use and honesty on a lie scale.

Frankly, We Do Give a Damn: The Relationship Between Profanity and Honesty - Gilad Feldman, Huiwen Lian, Michal Kosinski, David Stillwell, 2017
Frankly my dear, I don’t give a damn. Gone with the Wind (1939) Profane as it is, this memorable line by the character Rhett Butler in the film Gone with the Wind profoundly conveys Butler’s honest thoughts and feelings. However, it was the use of this profane word that led to a US$5,000 fine against the film’s production for violating the Motion Picture Production Code.
Personality Traits and Personal Values
Personality traits and personal values are important psychological characteristics, serving as important predictors of many outcomes. Yet, they are frequently studied separately, leaving the field with a limited understanding of their relationships. We review existing perspectives regarding the nature of the relationships between traits and values and provide a conceptual underpinning for understanding the strength of these relationships.
