An independent-sample t -test of mean differences in diversity pros between the abstract ( M = 4.36, SD = 2.19) and concrete ( M = 3.87, SD = 1.71) construal conditions confirmed the expectation that individuals generated more pros at a more abstract level of construal, at a level of marginal significance, in support of Hypothesis 3a, t (192) = 1.74, p = 0.08, d = 0.25.
