Note. The paired sample t-tests were conducted to show differences in mean worry and relaxation ratings between the noted conditions. WVAS = Worry Visual Analogue Scale; RelaxVAS = Relaxation Visual Analogue Scale, M = mean; SD = standard deviation; CI = confidence interval; df = degrees of freedom; sig = significance value.
