¹Min and max ratings are indicated in parenthesis. Standard Deviation is indicated in italics below the means. T-tests were performed on the means; no statistically significant differences were found in any of the comparisons, suggesting that the stimuli were closely matched for the above properties.

²The final rating assigned to each word was calculated by combining the ratings obtained with both directions of the rating scale (see Method).
