I build a framework to study how past and anticipated negative emotions interact with an agent’s preference and environment to influence her investment level. I show that the dynamic effect of emotions on decisions is more complicated than previously thought and requires a careful analysis of the decision environment to build correct predictions. Using baseball data, I show how to use the theoretical framework empirically to investigate the dynamic impact of emotion and find that it leads to suboptimal pitch velocity decisions. date: 2024 id_scheme: DOI id_number: 10.11588/heidok.00035773 schriftenreihe_cluster_id: sr-3 schriftenreihe_order: 0757 ppn_swb: 1915243599 own_urn: urn:nbn:de:bsz:16-heidok-357737 language: eng bibsort: STANERCLEMNEGATIVEEM20241203 full_text_status: public series: AWI Discussion Paper Series volume: 0757 place_of_pub: Heidelberg pages: 72 citation: Staner, Clément (2024) Negative Emotion Accumulation and Personal Motivation.
