Reported are the standardized coefficients with their standard errors in parentheses of the individual moderation analyses concerning teaching-related task discrepancy and emotions moderated by achievement goals. Statistically significant effects (p < 0.05) are displayed in boldface. All models were fully saturated and yielded a perfect fit to the data.
