In Switzerland, the significant drop on the daily number of cases (apparent from the first change-point in Fig 3 ) seems to be directly connected to the first change-point (sudden drop in the self-protective behaviors) in Fig 2 , showing that people seem to relax their adherence to preventive behaviors once there is a negative trend on the daily number of confirmed cases.

However, regression analyses targeting simple main effects revealed a negative trend-level association between activity of the right AI and RNT factor scores for the RNT>DIS contrast (see Table 1 and Fig. 2 ).

On the other hand, a more bluish coloring for the relationship between product age and average user rating could indicate a negative trend, revealing that older products or movies may have lower average ratings.

A first population-based register study [ 111 ] including 5,018 HIV patients and 50,149 controls failed to find an association (possibly due to the relatively small number of both groups) but showed a negative trend between both diseases.
