Notes: The average distance between test and re-test was 28.06 ±4.40 days, range = 22 to 47 days. Significant results are marked with an asterisk (e.g. *p, *q).
1 We compared the average results between cross-cultural trainers and non-professional participants’ results obtained during the first session.
2 Tests are statistically significant at the corrected q = .050 level.
