Descriptive Statistics for Effort-Doors Behavioral Variables

	High Effort	Low Effort	t
Win-Stay	0.52	0.44	t62 = 3.51a
Lose-Shift	0.56	0.53	t59 = 1.17
Effort RT	883.70	804.65	t63 = 3.64a
Doors RT	760.43	881.80	t62 = 3.74a

Win-Stay refers to the proportion of gain trials where the participant repeated their response on the following trial. Lose-Shift refers to the proportion of loss trials where the participant changed their response on the following trial. Effort RT indicates reaction time in milliseconds to the lock stimulus, Doors RT indicates reaction time in milliseconds to the doors stimulus. The t statistic refers to the paired-samples t test comparing high and low effort for each behavioral variable.

RT, reaction time.
