No correlations were significant after applying the False Discovery Rate.
DAS (A) = Dysfunctional Attitudes Scale – Form A; ASI = Anxiety Sensitivity Index; TAS = Toronto Alexithymia Scale.
Emotional reasoning scores were calculated by subtracting ratings for situations without a negative emotional response from ratings for situations with a negative emotional response.
