Abstract: In the article by Huang and Dong (2019), “Romantic Crushes Promote Variety-Seeking Behavior,” there were some typos and reporting errors; these corrections do not alter the pattern or significance of the findings, nor any of the inferences/conclusions drawn in the paper. The corrections are as follows: on page 230 (column 1), the main effect of arousal should be “b = .22, SE = .07, t(135) = 2.99, p = .003,” the arousal × bundle interaction effect should be “b = −.16, SE = .07, t(135) = −2.22, p = .028,” and the romantic crush × bundle interaction effect should be “b = .26, SE = .11, t(135) = 2.41, p = .018.” On page 231 (column 1), the alpha for the involvement scale should be “α = .94.” On page 232 (column 2), the p-value of the simple contrast effect between crush vs. initial stage of love should be “p = .003.” On page 234 (column 2), the p-value of the effect of those who experienced a lower level of negative affect should be “p > .81.” On page 235 (column 2), the SD for crush condition should be “SD = 2.02.” On page 235 (column 2), there is an extra “f” before one of the t(201). On page 237 (columns 1 and 2), the coding labels for the control condition in the supplemental regression analyses should be “control (1 = no control boost, −1 = control boost).” On page 237 (column 2), the comparison of the crush conditions in the bracket should be “2.92 vs. 3.13.” The online MDA has also been updated to include a table with complete summary of the supplementary analysis controlling for demographic variables and to correct the demographic information of the posttest of study 3.
