  1. Note This table summarizes item statistics, including means, standard deviations, item-total correlations, and Cronbach’s α if deleted. Items were excluded if their mean exceeded ± 1.5 standard deviations from the scale mean (i.e., > 7.31 or < 2.97) or if their standard deviation was less than 0.75
