Correction to Albers & Bringmann, 2020.

European Journal of Psychological Assessment, Vol 39(1), 2023, 73; doi:10.1027/1015-5759/a000759Reports an error in "Inspecting gradual and abrupt changes in emotion dynamics with the time-varying change point autoregressive model" by Casper J. Albers and Laura F. Bringmann (European Journal of Psychological Assessment, 2020, Vol 36[3], 492-499). The article contains errors in the text of the Electronic Supplementary Material, ESM 1. The final version of ESM 1 with correct information has been replaced in the original record and is now available (Albers & Bringmann, 2020). The authors regret any inconvenience caused. (The following abstract of the original article appeared in record 2020-47794-008.) Recent studies have shown that emotion dynamics such as inertia (i.e., autocorrelation) can change over time. Importantly, current methods can only detect either gradual or abrupt changes in inertia. This means that researchers have to choose a priori whether they expect the change in inertia to be gradual or abrupt. This will leave researchers in the dark regarding when and how the change in inertia occurred. Therefore in this article, we use a new model: the time-varying change point autoregressive (TVCP-AR) model. The TVCP-AR model can detect both gradual and abrupt changes in emotion dynamics. More specifically, we show that the inertia of positive affect and negative affect measured in one individual differs qualitatively in how it changes over time. Whereas the inertia of po...
