Post-task self-report questionnaire items at baseline and follow-up, and correlations with computational model parameters at follow-up.

Post-Task Self-Report Questions (Likert Scale: 1 = not at all; 7 = very much)	Mean (SD) Baseline (N = 478)	Mean (SD) 1-Year follow-up (N = 325)	Emotional conflict Paramater (EC)	Decision uncertainty parameter (β)
1. I found the POSITIVE pictures enjoyable	5.04 (1.69)	5.04 (1.54)	.04	− .01
2. The NEGATIVE pictures made me feel anxious Or uncomfortable	4.43 (1.99)	4.25 (1.96)	.30**	.16*
3. I often found it difficult to decide which outcome I wanted	2.51 (1.73)††	2.00 (1.57)††	− .08	.44**
4. I always tried to move ALL THE WAY TOWARDS the outcome with the LARGEST REWARD POINTS	4.76 (2.30)	4.83 (2.48)	− .83**	− .37**
5. I always tried to move ALL THE WAY AWAY FROM the outcome with the NEGATIVE PICTURE/SOUNDS	2.98 (2.17)	3.17 (2.39)	.75**	.24**
6. When a NEGATIVE picture and sound were displayed, I kept my eyes open and looked at the picture	5.49 (1.83)†	5.17 (2.02)†	− .47**	− .19**
7. When a NEGATIVE picture and sound were displayed, I tried to think about something unrelated to the picture to distract myself	2.96 (1.94)††	3.34 (2.08)††	.28**	.09
8. When a NEGATIVE picture and sound were displayed, I tried other strategies to manage emotions triggered by the pictures	3.26 (1.99)†	3.61 (2.07)†	.24**	.11*

Statistically significent results are highlighted in bold.

^†† = p < .01; † = p < .05 (pre-post differences).

** = p < .01; * = p < .05 (correlations at follow-up).
