  1. Results from a linear mixed model with punishment type, F(3, 3970.60) = 6.69, p < 0.001, anger, F(1, 372.55) = 67.16, p < 0.001, disgust, F(1, 450.90) = 42.18, p < 0.001, and the anger × punishment type, F(3, 4277.69) = 2.17, p = 0.089, and disgust × punishment type, F(3, 4166.67) = 3.79, p = 0.010, interactions as predictors of punishment motivations. The table shows parameter estimates from planned contrasts, without adjustments for multiple comparisons. All tests are two-sided. Physical confrontation motivations are used as the reference category. The model controls for gender and the gender × punishment type interaction. The model also includes effects of anger (person-average) and disgust (person-average), as well as the anger (person-average) × punishment type and disgust (person-average) × punishment type interactions. Results including person-average effects are available in Supplementary Table 5. Source data are provided as a Source data file.
