Abstract
Individuals anticipate and try to avoid the negative emotion of regret. Here we tested whether collective decisions modulate such behaviour. Our results show that engaging in risky collective decisions reduce regret anticipation. Also, experiencing high regret pushes individuals to engage in collective decisions.
