  1. Note: M – mean, SD – standard deviation; the frequency index refers to the proportion of each emotion relative to the total number of all reported emotions; the intensity index refers to the average intensity level reported for each emotion; the saturation index refers to the combined measure of how often and how strongly (frequency × intensity) each emotion was experienced, enabling the inclusion of multiple emotion choices in further analyses.
