Abstract
⺠The goal of this study was to uncover the development of regret and relief from late childhood to adulthood. ⺠We examined emotional and choice ratings in a child-friendly gambling task. ⺠The ability to experience regret and relief continues to develop in late childhood and adolescence. ⺠Children and adolescents' subjective experience of regret was reduced compared to adults. ⺠We found a dissociation between the experience of regret and the willingness to reconsider an initial choice in children.
