Evidence for the claim in the title? Or for anything else in the post?

There are many researches on anxiety and decision making, such as:

https://pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC4988522/

"Higher anxiety individuals were significantly more likely to choose the high-probability, small reward options relative to individuals reporting low anxiety." It's like choosing one of 5 boxes contains $5 instead a box contains $10

And evidence for what part of the post are you asking for?

That is nothing like the 5-and-10 problem. I am no longer interested in what you consider to be evidence.
