Note. Descriptive statistics for weighted subcomponents on scene construction task as a function of induction, followed by overall score. Numeric values are presented as mean per trial (with standard error in parentheses). The induction-related mean difference per trial (with standard error of the mean difference in parentheses) is presented in the last column. EI = Experiential Index.
indicates that p < .05,
p < .01,
p ≤ .001.
