Comparison of the Profile of Mood States-tension-anxiety (POMS-TA) scores of participants who did and did not complete the tasks. We found a significant tendency toward an interaction between group and time of assessment for the POMS TA subscale (F(1, 73) = 2.94, p = .091). The Bonferroni post hoc test revealed that the POMS-TA scores improved significantly for the participants who completed the tasks (p < .05)
