“…Note that participant x video variance also includes variance from measurement errors, which we cannot statistically separate. In most of the previous literature on epistemic emotions (e.g., Fayn et al, 2019;Fastrich et al, 2017;, withinperson variability reflected both the stimulus variance and participant x stimulus variance (i.e., video variance and participant x video variance in this study).…”

“…More specifically, we calculated within-person correlations for each participant (using video clips as the unit of analysis) and then computed the mean and SD of the correlations across participants (please see Table 5). Surprise in response to the trick, interest in the trick, and curiosity in the solution were highly correlated; however, there are also considerable individual differences (i.e., SD is relatively high), indicating that these three epistemic emotions are overlapping but distinct concepts, especially for particular individuals (Fayn et al 2019). The distributions of the within-person correlations were all unimodal but the distribution was also substantially skewed given the limit of correlation coefficients (-1 ≤ r ≤ 1) and large individual differences.…”

Magic Curiosity Arousing Tricks (MagicCATs): A novel stimulus collection to induce epistemic emotions

et al. 2020

There has been considerable interest in empirical research on epistemic emotions, i.e., emotions related to knowledge-generating qualities of cognitive tasks and activities such as curiosity, interest, and surprise. One big challenge when studying epistemic emotions is systematically inducting these emotions in restricted experimental settings. The current study created a novel stimulus set called Magic Curiosity Arousing Tricks (MagicCATs): a collection of 166 short magic trick video clips that aim to induce a variety of epistemic emotions. MagicCATs are freely available for research and can be used in a variety of ways to examine epistemic emotions. Rating data also support that the magic tricks elicit a variety of epistemic emotions with sufficient inter-stimulus variability, demonstrating good psychometric properties for their use in psychological experiments. Keywords intrinsic motivation. epistemic emotions. curiosity. science of magic Recent years have seen a surge of interest in the topic of socalled epistemic emotions. Epistemic emotions refer to a group of emotions which are related to the knowledgegenerating qualities of cognitive tasks and activities (Brun, Doğuoğlu, & Kuenzle, 2008; Muis, Chevrier, & Singh, 2018). These emotions typically include surprise, curiosity and interest. Recent studies have revealed that these epistemic emotions have profound implications for cognitive processing * Hiroki Ozono

The effect of brand crises on endorser reputation and endorsement portfolios

We often hear about a brand dropping a celebrity after the endorser has negative publicity. However, endorsers are not the only ones who are responsible for negative news; many brands also generate negative publicity as well. The growing frequency of brand crises and the demonstrated relationship between brand‐ and endorser‐reputation begs the question: What impact might a severe brand crisis have on a celebrity endorser's reputation and endorsement portfolio? Study 1 finds that negative publicity only impacts the brand's moral reputation if internal locus attributions are made. In turn, moral reputation positively impacts attitudes toward the brand, endorser, and other brands in their endorsement portfolio. Next, Study 2 discovers that endorsers may be perceived to have greater authenticity, leading to more favorable consumer attitudes, if they “drop” the offending brand. Finally, Study 3 finds that “dropping” the offending brand can mitigate negative spillover effects on attitudes toward bystander brands.
