Connections of psychological factors to the stimulus ratings.

Ratings of arousal, valence, happiness and anger/aggressiveness were predicted with Extraversion (Ex), Neuroticism (Neur), Emotional Concern (EC), Perspective-taking (PT), animal-directed Emotional Concern (aniEC) and animal-directed Perspective-taking (aniPT) factors. Connections of dog stimulus ratings with dog experience were obtained with dog expertise (Expe) and dog exposure (Expo) predictors. Significant regression coefficients (beta values) are marked with asterisks (*p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p < 0.001) and the results with p-values above the FDR threshold are written in bold type.
