Results show Pearson correlations (r) or t-statistics (t) from independent t-test.
p < 0.002; N = 200.
Only 78 participants were included in the correlation analyses for the Progressive ratio task due to an update to the task part way through the study.
Only 175 participants were included in the correlation analyses for the 4CSRTT due to technical failure.
Females showed greater guilt ratings.
