Pearson correlation matrix with the variables from Study 2—Sample 2. Williams’ t = t-value results (df = 318) of the pairwise comparison of the correlation coefficients of the ER11 and ER89 scales, ER89 = original version of the ER scale, ER11 = our version of the ER scale, AEW = Active Engagement with the World, RPSS = Repertoire of Problem Solving Strategies, IPS = Integrated Performance under Stress, R-CD-RISC = refined version of the CD-RISC, PA (moment) = positive affect measured by PANAS based on the respondents’ actual state, PA (week) = positive affect measured by PANAS based on the last week of the respondents, NA (moment) = negative affect measured by PANAS based on the respondents’ actual state, NA (week) = negative affect measured by PANAS based on the last week of the respondents, BICB = Biographical Inventory of Creative Behaviors
