Note. Correlation coefficients (r) are indicated. The variables listed next to the ascending numbers in the rows are represented by the numbers alone in the columns. Only participants with usable data for all measures in the table are included so that all correlations represented above pertain to the same participants. AC = attentional control. ACS = Attentional Control Scale. STAI = State-Trait Anxiety Inventory. STICSA = State-Trait Inventory of Cognitive and Somatic Anxiety. TSST = Trier Social Stress Test. EDA = electrodermal activity.
