Correlations of SIP and responses in Instrumental Gain Scenarios are reported in the upper part of the Table (Object Acquisition Scenario above the Diagonal; Competition Scenario below) and correlations of SIP and Responses in Provocation Scenarios in the lower part of the Table (Social Provocation Scenario above the Diagonal; Object Provocation Scenario below

All correlations including Instrumental Goals, Revenge Goals or Aggressive Responses are point-biserial correlations, all correlations between Instrumental Goals, Revenge Goals and Aggressive Responses used Pearson’s π, and other correlations used Pearson’s r
