Note. DRM = Day Reconstruction Method; ESM = Experience Sampling Method; Ns vary by situation variable, depending on how many people participated in that situation. Data from all moments were included, regardless of whether they came from moments for which both methods of assessment were available (i.e., “matched” moments).
