• Taking care of business? Grateful processing of unpleasant memories (2008, result): “Also consistent with past research (Watkins, Grimm, & Kolts, 2004 ), pretest trait gratitude was predictive of the number of positive memories intentionally retrieved in our intrusive memory measure.”
• Pay It Forward: Gratitude in Social Networks (2011, result): “The previous studies that administered the English version of the GQ-6 also found that the instrument possessed valid results (Giacalone et al. 2005; Kashdan et al. 2006; McCullough et al. 2004; Watkins et al. 2004).”
• Is gratitude an alternative to materialism? (2006, background): “In a third relevant study, Watkins et al. (2004) found that people with high scores on a personality measure of gratitude tended to recall positive autobiographical memories more readily than did people who scored lower on the gratitude measure.”
