Emotions. We assessed participants’ emotional reactions to the water crisis on both waves using the Discrete Emotions Questionnaire (Harmon-Jones et al., 2016). Participants reported their emotional reactions to the Flint water crisis in response to the item “ Thinking about the water crisis in Flint, Michigan, to what extent do you feel the following emotions?” To assess their feelings of disgust, participants reported how much they felt dis-gust, grossed out, nausea, and revulsion (Wave 1: α= .91, Wave 2: α = .91). To assess how angry participants felt, they reported how much they felt anger, rage, mad, and pissed off (Wave 1: α = .94, Wave 2: α = .94). Finally, to assess how sad they felt (a negative emotion that we did not attempt to manipulate), participants reported how much they felt sadness and grief (Wave 1: α = .83, Wave 2: α = .82). Answers to these questions were reported using a 7-point scale with the response options not at all, slightly, somewhat, moderately, quite a bit, very much, an extreme amount.

Finally, respondents were asked to indicate the extent to which the prompt made them feel a sense of anger, disgust, sadness, anxiety, and fear (fear was only measured in the Lucid sample). All responses were coded on a 5-point ascending scale, and all responses were combined in a summated rating scale
