Table 2: Principal component loadings of the Cybersecurity GRID Items in Study 1 after orthogonal Procrustes rotation toward the a priori theoretically expected dimensions. The second dimension had high loadings of appraisals and action tendencies indicating constructive reactions on the one side and unconstructive action tendencies, bodily reactions, and subjective feelings on the other side. This bipolar dimension is labeled 'constructive vs unconstructive'. Positive loadings reflected unconstructive action tendencies (e.g., I would want to destroy whatever was close, I would want to take revenge) as well as bodily reactions indicating distress (e.g., I would have pain in the chest, I would be dizzy), while negative loadings reflected constructive tendencies (e.g., I would think \"I wonder whether something is wrong with the device/account\", I would want to find a solution and fix the problem). The second dimension reflected the specific nature of cybersecurity breaches in which either withdrawing from the use of connected devices or wanting to attack or punish the often invisible and unreachable attacker can be considered unconstructive. The third dimension is also replicated.
