The situations “sleep badly on previous night” and “Be  damaged for arbitrator” was avaliated with more negative reponses while “ Himself charged to win” and “ The adversary is the favourite”  was was avaliated with more positive reponses. SG showed positive avaliations increased copared to CG, decreased on nule response and decreased on -1 and -3 responses. GC showed decrease in -2 responses.
