Importantly, these small differences in feedback discrepancies did not drive the observed main effect of desirability for updating since an ANOVA on pure absolute mean update scores (i.e., without normalization with respect to feedback discrepancies) revealed a highly significant effect of desirability [ F (1, 100) = 120.68, p < 0.001, η 2 p = 0.55; pure absolute mean updates across all four groups: self-desirable = 0.67, SD = 0.44; self-undesirable = 0.17, SD = 0.36; other-desirable = 0.71, SD = 0.43; other-undesirable = 0.24, SD = 0.39].
