About this table

DescriptionMomentary mood, Italian adaptation of the Multidimensional Mood Questionnaire (MDMQ) with three added items: 9 bipolar 1-7 sliders for valence (unwell-well, content-discontent, negative-positive state), tense arousal (relaxed-tense, agitated-calm, nervous-placid) and fatigue (tired-awake, full of-without energy, fatigued-rested). Item direction follows the anchors as presented, so it varies across items. 175 people. Italian office workers, three workdays (Mon/Wed/Fri), seven prompts/day 9:15-18:15; wave is each person's answered-prompt number in time order (shared across the three menghini_2023 tables), date is Unix time (source stamps are Italian local time, converted). Covariates: cov_gender, cov_age, cov_work_hours, cov_job_sector (from the OSF processed file).

Codebook

This codebook is reconstructed by the IRW from the IRW data standard and the script that built it, menghini_2023_esm_workstress.py. It is our best reading, not the source’s own codebook, and it may contain mistakes. Where the two disagree, the source data are the authority. If you find an error, please tell us.
