For daily stressor (i.e., daily stress exposure across 8 days), proportion and standard error are reported. Missing data for daily stressor, negative affect, and positive affect are on individual days across all participants. There is no missingness for average number of stressors as there were no participants missing data on daily stressor across all days.
