Abstract

This study will examine how certain positive emotions impact hiring decisions. Participants feeling either awe or nurturant love will decide who among three candidates to hire, one of which is an ex-convict. We hypothesize participants feeling awe will be more likely to hire the ex-convict than those feeling nurturant love.
