Note(s):

On the left side, descriptive statistics are listed; on the right side, bivariate correlations are shown. Lower triangular: within-person correlations. Upper triangular: between-person correlations. n1 = Level 1, n2 = Level 2. A multilevel correlation was calculated between task newness and task difficulty. The person’s means of task newness and task difficulty were used for the between-person correlations with the other predictors. aThis mean value and standard deviation refer to the person-mean variable. For the standard deviation of person-mean variables, each person is weighted equally, regardless of the number of measurement times
