For analysis of the postquit in-session ratings data, we ran models containing EOT group status and its interaction with slide valence (of the slide immediately preceding each in-session rating) and session as IVs, with baseline in-session ratings as covariates, separately for each of the in-session rating DVs. Only postquit in-session craving ratings were sensitive to EOT group status, F(2, 106) = 3.68, p < .03, with relapsers (LSM = 2.79, SE = 0.13; t(106) = 2.51, p < .02) having larger in-session craving ratings than controls (LSM = 2.34, SE = 0.12). The difference between abstainers (LSM = 2.72, SE = 0.15) and controls approached statistical significance, t(106) = 1.97, p < .06, while the in-session craving ratings did not differ between relapsers and abstainers. There were no significant EOT group status interactions with slide valence, or session for any of the in-session ratings. These findings indicate that only the craving in-session ratings, and not the negative or positive mood ratings, were sensitive to EOT group status, with relapsers producing higher postquit craving values than controls.
