: By the time the data were acquired it was neither customary at Kassel University nor at most other German universities to seek ethics approval for simple studies on personality and attitudes. Thus, ethical approval was not required for this study in accordance with the national and institutional guidelines. However, the studies exclusively make use of anonymous questionnaires and no identifying information were obtained from participants. Moreover, every participant had to read and agree on a declaration of consent. They were explicitly informed that all their data would be treated confidentially and that they could withdraw from the study at any given time, without explanation, by simply closing the internet browser.
