TABLE 2.

Means, standard deviations of dependent variables for all conditions (only measures with significant MANOVA test are reported).

The means of the same dependent variable having different subscripts in the different experimental groups (subscript a vs. subscript b) differ significantly at p < 0.05 as indicated by Tukey post hoc tests. For instance, the means for positive emotions in the consistency and control group, with the subscript a, differ significantly from the mean for positive emotions in the inconsistency condition, with the subscript b.
