Fig 1.
Displays the boxplot of each emotional condition and mean step length (cm) for each emotion alongside significant pairwise results. Main effect of emotional condition was found (χ2 Friedman (df = 5) = 28.39, p = 3.05e-5, WKendall = 0.25) with a small effect size. Adjusted p values are simplified as *, **, *** for p values <0.05, 0.01, 0.001 respectively.
Fig 2.
Displays the boxplot of each emotional condition and velocity (cm/s) for each emotion alongside significant pairwise results. Main effect of emotional condition was found (χ2 Friedman (df = 5) = 35.47, p = 1.21e-6, WKendall = 0.31) with a moderate effect size. Adjusted p values are simplified as *, **, *** for p values <0.05, 0.01, 0.001 respectively.
Fig 3.
Step time, stance time, swing time, and emotion.
Displays the boxplots of each emotional condition and the parameters of step time (A), stance time (B), and swing time (C). Main effects of emotional condition were found in all three parameters of step time χ2 Friedman (df = 5) = 37.75, p = 4.23e-7, WKendall = 0.33, stance time χ2 Friedman (df = 5) = 38.74, p = 2.88e-7, WKendall = 0.34, and swing time χ2 Friedman (df = 5) = 23.77, p = 2.41e-4, WKendall = 0.21. Adjusted p values are simplified as *, **, *** for p values <0.05, 0.01, 0.001 respectively.
