"Prioritizing positivity: An effective approach to pursuing happiness?": Correction to Catalino, Algoe, & Fredrickson (2014)

Abstract

In the article “Prioritizing Positivity: An Effective Approach to Pursuing Happiness?” by Lahnna I. Catalino, Sara B. Algoe, and Barbara L. Fredrickson (Emotion, 2014, Vol. 14, No. 6, pp. 1155– 1161. http://dx.doi.org/10.1037/a0038029), there was an error in the first paragraph of the Materials subsection, “Prioritizing positivity.” from the Method section. The first paragraph, the 11th line should have read, “Because four of the items were negatively skewed, the items were transformed by squaring them (Kline, 1998).”
