81% Informative

More than half of Americans say that gift-giving stresses them out.

People tend to overestimate the negative consequences of sending a late gift, says Rebecca Walker Reczek and Grant Donnelly .

They found that people pay more attention to norms about gifting than the recipients.

Recipients are less likely to expect a late delivery to damage a relationship if they signal their care for the recipient in a different way, they say.
