marginally significantp = 0.052
Simple effects analyses indicated the effect was significant for happy primes, F (1, 83) = 10.19, p = 0.002, η p 2 = 0.11, and marginally significant for sad primes, F (1, 18) = 3.87, p = 0.052, η p 2 = 0.05.

Response time data Only one effect approached significance: Responses to positive word targets ( M = −0.12, SEM = 0.03) were slightly faster than those to negative word targets ( M = −0.07, SEM = 0.03), F (1, 166) = 3.86, p = 0.051, η p 2 = 0.02.
