“…Furthermore, to assess individual differences between participants, we included a measure for epistemic style (Elphinstone, Farrugia, Critchley, & Eigenberger, 2014). This inventory measures people's preferences for information processing and problem solving: One scale reflects preference for intellective style reasoning (e.g., by deep reflection on problems), and the other a default style reasoning (e.g., by finding quick solutions).…”

Questions were answered on a five-point Likert-type scale, ranging from 1 = Do not agree to 5 = Agree completely .…”
