“…Importantly, the control group had significantly lower scores on the BDI-II, t(27.05) = À5.92, p < .001, and Beck Anxiety Inventory (BAI; Beck, Epstein, Brown, & Steer, 1988), t(26.01) = À6.01, p < .001, relative to the depressive group, scoring below the cut-off for mild depression (scores <14) and anxiety (scores <8). Power analyses were conducted using G*Power (Faul, Erdfelder, Lang, & Buchner, 2007) on the basis of published effect sizes for group differences in executive function (Study 1, Dalgleish et al, 2007) and specificity (Study 1, Dalgleish et al, 2007), correlations of executive measures with specificity (Study 2, Dalgleish et al, 2007), and regressions including specificity as the outcome measure and executive measures as predictors (Holland, Ridout, Walford, & Geraghty, 2012). These analyses indicated that a minimum of 24 participants per group were needed to achieve 80% power at a = .05 across all of these key analyses.…”
