Mental representations of the CoOp networks.
Each MR is visualized with different colors (purple:Guilt/Shame/Relief; blue: Stress/Relaxation; orange: Addiction/Health, green: Procrastination/Boredom). The sizes of a node and its label are proportional to the frequency of the given association. An edge means that two associations fall into a common MR in the consensus-partitioning procedure at least 40%.

Pairwise comparison of emotions across mental representations.
Fig 3.
Graphical representation of differences in MRs between (A) psychoactive substance uses and potentially addictive behaviors, (B) low-intensity and high-intensity potentially addictive behaviors, and (C) low-intensity and high-intensity psychoactive substance uses. Colors indicate how far the observed frequencies deviate from what would be expected under the assumption of independence between the variables.
