Valence ratings: “How do you feel when seeing this triangle? (0 = very negative, 100 = very positive)” Arousal ratings: “How aroused do you feel when seeing this triangle? (0 = very calm, 100 = very excited).” p-value: paired t-test significant differences (p < 0.05) are marked with ‘*’; SD: standard deviation.
