Actually, quite the opposite. The tendency on a go-around is to under-rotate due to somatogravic effect.
Somatogravic Effect
My experience as a TRE/IRE was that most pilots will typically rotate the aircraft to approximately 10°-11° NU which results in a very shallow climb gradient. It was necessary to “train” that tendency out of them by explaining somatogravic effect and teaching them to learn to ignore the miscues from the inner ear.
