Motivation | UD repetition | UD switching | DU repetition | DU switching | Costs |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
High approach | 2252.52 ± 531.12 | 2416.57 ± 564.21 | 2484.75 ± 564.69 | 2505.08 ± 536.58 | 184.37 ± 340.59 |
Low approach | 2225.96 ± 527.50 | 2392.20 ± 482.85 | 2363.69 ± 454.47 | 2464.69 ± 537.78 | 267.23 ± 448.76 |
Neutral | 2390.01 ± 530.68 | 2439.03 ± 545.20 | 2428.37 ± 529.15 | 2408.06 ± 550.39 | 28.71 ± 398.37 |
Low avoidance | 2311.53 ± 541.59 | 2362.29 ± 511.63 | 2421.47 ± 529.15 | 2452.13 ± 531.86 | 81.41 ± 339.62 |
High avoidance | 2364.22 ± 519.00 | 2346.86 ± 585.19 | 2446.87 ± 506.56 | 2332.76 ± 488.65 | −131.47 ± 327.24 |
The cost is calculated by subtracting the repetition reaction time of both the UD and DU from the switching reaction time of both the UD and DU.
