Letter of Appreciation @ Study find people underestimate the value of sending a “Thank You Note”
Saying ‘thanks’ is more powerful than you think
In the study “Undervaluing Gratitude:
Expressers Misunderstand the Consequences of Showing Appreciation”, Chicago
Booth professor Nicholas Epley and University of Texas at Austin’s Amit Kumar
discovered a wide gap between how little senders think their letters of
gratitude will affect the recipient and the high level of happiness the
recipients feel upon reading the letter. “There’s so much talk in the
world—both in academic literature and in the popular press—that expressing gratitude
is good for you,” said Kumar, a post-doctoral researcher at Booth at the time
of the research. “But that doesn’t seem to line up with how often people are
actually articulating their appreciation in daily life. So, we wanted to find
out what are the barriers holding people back?”
