Totally agreed. I have this dataset open in R at home, and intend to dig into it a bit more. One would expect the meditation participants to be more comfortable.

But to be fair, if I was left alone in a room with a button that would shock me, I would probably push the button at least once.

That was my thought as well but didn't they provide a sample of how it feels to each participant beforehand so it was not new to them anymore?
