This is what I identify as the 'results' in my earlier comment:

Instead of using the feeling (which would make your assertiveness rating go down with the number of examples, because it would seem harder to think of them), you use the amount of examples (which makes your assertiveness rating go up with the number of examples).

I can offer you the source, I suppose? There are numbers in that. It should be easier to understand than it would have been if I hadn't introduced you to the experiment designs.
