The data were statistically analyzed using SPSS Statistics Version 20. Trials with missing data were removed from analysis. The HRes and LRes groups did not differ in the number of removed trials t (t = 0.79, p = 0.045). The Kolmogorov–Smirnov test was conducted to ascertain a normal distribution of the behavioral data and population parameters. Subsequently, a series of 2 (group: high-resilient students and less-resilient students) × 3 (emotional category: positive, neutral, and negative) mixed-model analysis of variance was conducted to investigate whether students with high level of resilience differed from those less-resilient individuals in the cognitive processing of emotional information. Bonferroni follow-up tests were used to further analyze significant differences.
