Demographic and Questionnaire data presented for the current sample. LMA and HMA groups were formed on the basis of groups created by MARS scores controlling for STAI (MA-STAI). ∗Indicates that the HMA and LMA groups showed significant differences between groups on this measure, p < 0.05, where the HMA group had significantly higher scores on these variables than the LMA group.
