dc.description.abstractThe purpose of the current study was to examine how cognitive fatigue, personality factors and mood influence economical decision making in a fictitious single choice setting. Participants (N=57) were divided into two groups, one of which completed a personality inventory, whereas the other was instructed to watch a short video clip thought to be relaxing. Current mood was measured in both groups. Results imply a significant correlation between choice of charity organization and mood, level of cognitive fatigue and two personality facets. Subsequent discussion focuses on possible explanations of above mentioned relationships, as well as study limitations and future research.sv
