STECCO CODEBOOK 53 Trait Affect Affect items were chosen to capture all quadrants of the affect circumplex (Russell, 1980). We used the same items as in our previous work (Neubauer et al. (2022, February 22). PACO - Psychological Adjustment to the COVID-19 Pandemic. https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/WCERJ), with two items capture moderate to high arousal positive affect (happy, cheerful), and two items capture low arousal positive affect (relaxed, balanced). The items afraid and angry capture high arousal states of the content domains of anxiety and anger, respectively. The item worried captures moderate arousal and belongs to the content domain of worry, and the item sad captures low arousal and belongs to the content domain of sadness. Additionally, the items lively and exhausted capture the poles of the arousal dimension of the affect circumplex. Russell, J. A. (1980). A circumplex model of affect.

STECCO CODEBOOK 97 Trait Affect Affect items were chosen to capture all quadrants of the affect circumplex (Russell, 1980). We used the same items as in our previous work (Neubauer et al. (2022, February 22). PACO - Psychological Adjustment to the COVID-19 Pandemic. https://doi.org/10.17605/OSF.IO/WCERJ), with two items capture moderate to high arousal positive affect (happy, cheerful), and two items capture low arousal positive affect (relaxed, balanced). The items afraid and angry capture high arousal states of the content domains of anxiety and anger, respectively. The item worried captures moderate arousal and belongs to the content domain of worry, and the item sad captures low arousal and belongs to the content domain of sadness. Additionally, the items lively and exhausted capture the poles of the arousal dimension of the affect circumplex. Russell, J. A. (1980). A circumplex model of affect.
