A test of the first set of predictions using a 2 x 2 repeated measures ANOVA with condition (easy-fight, easy-flee) and hand (fight hand, flee hand) as within-subject factors revealed a highly significant interaction effect, F (1, 29) = 13.10, p = .001, η 2 p = .31, in line with the goal-directed account (see Fig 4 ).

Planned comparisons showed a trend effect in the flee hand with higher MEPs in the easy-flee ( M = 1.05, SD = 0.14) than in the difficult condition ( M = 0.98, SD = 0.11), F (1, 29) = 2.90, p = .099, η 2 p = .09, in line with the goal-directed account.
