Subjective variable means and standard deviations for each counterbalanced order

Variable	Counterbalanced order 1		Counterbalanced order 2
	Positive game	Negative game	Negative game	Positive game
Flow	2.48 (.84)	2.15 (.93)**	2.35 (.79)	2.37 (.98) n.s.
Positive affect	2.8 (.93)	2.19 (.87)**	2.85 (.87)	2.82 (1.12) n.s.
Negative affect	2.33 (.79)	2.64 (.81)**	2.34 (.77)	2.36 (.91) n.s.
Win estimates	49.40 (30.5)	38.49 (27.0)*	49.86 (37.35)	52.94 (48.33) n.s.
