Correlation between personality traits and the sunk cost effect.
Plots and regression lines of correlation between personality traits and the sunk cost effect are shown (N = 32). (a) Correlation between agreeableness and the sunk cost effect (r = 0.51, p = 0.003), (b) correlation between conscientiousness and the sunk cost effect (r = 0.36, p = 0.046), and (c) correlation between averaged score of these two personality traits and the sunk cost effect (r = 0.53, p = 0.002). Dashed lines are 95% confidence interval boundaries. *overlapping data point.
