abstract

This article reviews research on affect, emotion, and decision making published in Organizational Behavior and Human Decision Processes from the 1990s onward. The review is organized around four topical areas: the influence of incidental mood states and discrete emotions on decision making, the influence of integral affect on decision making, affect and emotion as a consequence of decision making, and the role of regret in decision making. Some potential limitations of extant work on affect, emotion, and decision making are discussed. Lastly, particularly promising directions for future research are elaborated including intuition and decision making, ethical decision making, and affect and emotion over time and decision making.

7. Directions for future research

Theorizing and research can and should further develop in each of the subtopic areas which organized our review. For example, researchers could explore a wider range of discrete emotions and their role in decision making. Moreover, it appears that the time is ripe to explore the implications of both incidental affect and integral affect for decision making in the same studies as clearly both can and do take place. Nonetheless, in considering affect, emotion, and decision making, we have identified three additional areas which we believe are especially promising in terms of enhancing our understanding of phenomena of fundamental importance in this domain: intuition and decision making, ethical decision making, and affect, emotion, and decision making over time. Each of these topical areas is highly relevant to decision making in organizational contexts.
