The Open Anchoring Quest Dataset: Anchored Estimates from 96 Studies on Anchoring Effects
People ’s estimates are biased toward previously considered numbers (anchoring). We have aggregated all available data from anchoring studies that included at least two anchors into one large dataset. Data were standardized to comprise one estimate per row, coded according to a wide range of variables, a nd are available for download and analyses online (https://metaanalyses.shinyapps.io/OpAQ/). Because the dataset includes both original and meta-data it allows for fine-grained analyses (e.g., correlations of estimates for different tasks) but also for meta-analyses (e.g., effect sizes for anchoring effects). Published o...

Data from “Object Labeling Activates Young Children’s Scale Errors at an Early Stage of Verb Vocabulary Growth”
When young children develop the ability to represent and interact with objects, scale errors, in which they attempt to act on miniature-sized artifacts in an impossible manner, are often observed. To investigate the relationships between scale errors and semantic representations activated by lexical cues, we performed studies while manipulating whether object labeling was provided (the noun and pronoun conditions) as a within-participant factor (Hagihara et al., 2022). The dataset included the scale error production of 72 Japanese toddlers aged from 18 to 30 months, with their vocabulary measures. This dataset is freely av...

The COVID-19 Framing Dataset: How Secondary Data Can Be Used to Explore Paradoxical Attitudes During the COVID-19 Pandemic
We present a data set containing data of five cross-cultural framing studies conducted during the COVID-19 pandemic (Austria, Germany, U.K. and U.S.). The dataset covers data on participants ’ conspiracy mentality, distrust in science, risk aversion, individualism-collectivism and the endorsement of preventive behaviors such as vaccination willingness. In addition, across all studies, we collected data of a newly developed scale measuring paradoxical, anti-prevention attitudes during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020–2021). We think that authors interested in the interplay of different traits and COVID-19 attitudes could be ...
