It's all of the above, actually, David.

So the way that we think about dread is any kind of negative feelings that you have about things that haven't happened yet.

So we can separate out that definition, though, which is kind of the way that we think about this, from what we're actually doing when we measure it.

And when we're measuring this, what we're really doing is seeing, OK, for people who are going to expect to be financially worse off in the next year,

To what extent does that affect their current well-being?

For people who think that they're going to be better off in the next year, to what extent does that affect their current well-being?

And it turns out that thinking that you're going to be financially worse off in the next year is a much bigger deal than thinking that you're going to be financially better off in the next year.

Well, we know that it can produce kind of negative emotional consequences in the present time.

So when we're dreading something that's going to happen in the future, we can start to ruminate about that thing, we can focus on that thing, and it can crowd out other thoughts that we might be having in the meantime.
