However, there was a significant choice × emotional content interaction, F (1, 16) = 6.33, p = .023, ŋp2= .284, and a strong trend towards a choice × emotional content × feedback interaction, F (1, 16) = 4.44, p = .051, ŋp2 = .217.
Exploratory results on the almost significant three-way interaction of choice × emotional content × feedback showed that this pattern resulted from negative feedback trials such that significant differences between neutral and negative trials were not found for self choices t (16) = −1.815, p = .088, d = −.555, but were found for denied choices t (16) = 3.201, p = .006, d = .720 (see Figure 5).
