Participants did not see the completed word in parentheses and all word stems were presented in black ink, however, for ease, the three filler words are marked in red (e.g., Michigan, stadium, winter) and the completions that would be coded as uncertainty-certainty are presented in parentheses at the end of stem. Filler stems did not have an uncertainty-certainty completion. The other words could have an uncertainty-certainty completion or not. The completion that was coded as uncertainty-certainty is noted in parenthesis. Note that some of these stems could also be completed by words that are not related to certainty-uncertainty (e.g. do_ _ _ could be completed as doubt or as donut, the former would be coded as certainty-uncertainty, the latter would not. The same is true for h_ _ _ ful which could be completed as hopeful or as helpful, the former would be coded as certainty-uncertainty, the latter would not).
