PA, Positive Affect; NA, Negative Affect.

Mean of dynamic parameters refers to the mean of each autoregressive and cross–lagged effect for each dyad over time, whereas variability of dynamic parameters is the standard deviation of each effect for each dyad over time. The descriptive statistics (mean, SD, min, and max) are then calculated on these means and SDs across dyads.
