Table 1.

Means (and standard deviations) for morality, competence and sociability information and statistics of repeated measures ANOVAs (Study 2).

Target variable Morality Competence Sociability F, p, and ηp2 values
Perceived pervasiveness over time 6.24a (1.91) 5.86b (2.01) 5.19c (2.06) F(2,298) = 28.86, p < 0.001; ηp2 = 0.09

Pairwise comparisons: M vs. C: p = 0.03; M vs. S: p < 0.001; C vs. S: p < 0.001

Importance and centrality for the self 7.39a (1.04) 7.21b (1.33) 6.76c (1.51) F(2,298) = 87.93, p < 0.001; ηp2 = 0.23

Pairwise comparisons: M vs. C: p < 0.001; M vs. S: p < 0.001; C vs. S: p < 0.001

Importance and centrality in the eyes of others 7.76a (1.19) 7.09b (1.45) 6.64c (1.64) F(2,298) = 83.60, p < 0.001; ηp2 = 0.22

Pairwise comparisons: M vs. C: p < 0.001; M vs. S: p < 0.001; C vs. S: p < 0.001

Indicative of true nature 7.18a (1.64) 5.29b (1.88) 5.51b (2.04) F(2,298) = 106.67, p < 0.001; ηp2 = 0.26

Pairwise comparisons: M vs. C: p < 0.001; M vs. S: p < 0.001; C vs. S: p = 0.37

Predictive of future behavior 7.05a (1.63) 5.57b (1.72) 5.53b (2.01) F(2,297) = 89.78, p < 0.001; ηp2 = 0.23

Pairwise comparisons: M vs. C: p < 0.001; M vs. S: p < 0.001; C vs. S: p = 0.26

Requiring effort to repair 5.64a (1.37) 4.32b (1.14) F(1,298) = 242.44, p < 0.001; ηp2 = 0.45
Anticipated ingroup respect 3.49a (1.29) 4.52b (1.32) F(1,295) = 172.09, p < 0.001; ηp2 = 0.37

Different superscripts in raw indicate a significant difference at least at p < 0.05. Pairwise comparisons were performed with Bonferroni tests. For the last two variables the comparison was between morality and competence information.
