Note.

Differed significantly from zero

Completed between Sessions 1 and 2.

Rated by participants on a 7 point Likert scale from 0 = not at all useful to 7 = extremely useful. Mean calculated across ratings for use with negative life event memories and everyday negative memories. There was no significant difference in the reported usefulness of each strategy, F(4, 10) = 2.23, p = 0.08, $η_{p}^{2} = 0.18 .$ .
