Positive scores indicate that the future is more positive than the past; negative scores indicate that the future is more negative than the past; scores no different from 0 indicate that the past and present are equivalent. LGBTQ Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender, or Queer; PP = positive then positive; NP = negative then positive; PN = positive then negative; NN = negative then negative. “Initial” = emotion rating for first event in the sequence; “Recent” = emotion rating for second event in the sequence; “Past” = (emotion rating for initial event + emotion rating for recent event) / 2.
