“M” = means and “SD” = standard deviation. Neuroticism mean scores are based on the sum of the two items of neuroticism for each wave divided by 2. A value of Bayes Factor ₁₀ (BF₁₀) higher than 3 indicates that data are in favor of the alternative hypothesis rather than the null hypothesis. The credibility interval indicates significance of the BF₁₀: when the confidence interval does not contain the value 0 (meaning that both ends of the interval are either larger or smaller than 0), we reject H0 and conclude that the path is significant. Analyses indicate anecdotal evidence for H0 for neuroticism and TMT-A, meaning there was no significant difference between mean scores at W1 and W2. Analyses indicate extreme evidence for H1 for TMT-B, meaning there was a significant difference between mean scores at W1 and W2
