Figure 3. Emotional processing in the WOF task.

A. Diminished negative emotional ratings in RRMS patients. Mean emotional ratings were plotted for disappointment (comparison of an obtained outcome with a more favorable unobtained outcome in partial feedback condition), regret (comparison of an obtained outcome with a more favorable unobtained outcome in complete feedback condition), rejoy (comparison of an obtained outcome with a less favorable unobtained outcome in partial feedback condition) and relief (comparison of an obtained outcome with a less favorable unobtained outcome in complete feedback condition). Wilcoxon signed rank tests between groups for disappointment and regret: disappointment (z = −2.45, p = 0.01) and regret (z = −2.38, p = 0.02). B. Comparable emotional arousal in SCRs for RRMS patients and controls. Mean SCRs during feedback plotted for disappointment, regret, rejoy and relief. No statistical differences between groups.
