*Note that while all items were included in descriptive analyses, alpha was calculated only with the first 4 items, as these were consistently shown to all participants. **Reliability not performed, as individual items were randomly presented to participants. ***Note that all subscales were combined for this analysis. Abbreviations: Composite Score Code = Composite score name used in all data files. Min = minimum score possible on a scale. Max = maximum score possible on per scale. Mean = global mean score on scale. SD = global standard deviation per scale. #Items = number of items on scale. N for Descriptives = number of subjects who answered questions on a scale. N for Reliability = number of participants who answered all questions with Likert/numerical responses on a scale. Cronbach’s Alpha = reliability testing for global data.
