Inaction inertia is the phenomenon that forgoing an initial attractive opportunity decreases the likelihood of taking a subsequent opportunity that is less attractive, even when the subsequent opportunity still offers positive value. We conducted three preregistered replications of Tykocinski et al.’s Experiments 1 and 2’s four scenarios in four samples ( N = 1,555). We found consistent findings across samples, with the inaction inertia effect dependent on the scenario used. Strongest support was for the car scenario ( d = −0.57 to −0.68) and the ski scenario ( d = −0.18 to −0.67), with mixed findings for the fitness scenario (large-small: d = −0.62; control contrasts: opposite to predictions) and weak to no effects for the flyer scenario ( d = −0.14 to 0.02). We conclude that context is important in studying inaction inertia, recommend the car and ski scenarios for follow-up research on inaction inertia, and discuss implications for future research.
