Daily emotional granularity estimated as the inverse of the intra-class correlation over the intensity ratings for positively- and negatively-valenced emotion adjectives, respectively. Change in positive and negative emotional granularity operationalized as the regression coefficient associated with assessment day when used to predict daily granularity, such that positive values reflect increases in granularity over time and negative values reflect decreases in granularity over time.
