Unpredictability, assessed using the QUIC, portends functional outcomes at 5 years. A) Income/needs ratio (INR) has a weak association with effortful control in our sample of individuals. B) Correlation of maternal depressive symptoms with effort control suggests a weak negative association in these individuals. C) Measures of maternal sensitivity do not correlate with effortful control at 54 months of age in this sample. D) Unpredictability measured using the Questionnaire of Unpredictability in Childhood (QUIC) is inversely correlated with effortful control score at 54 months. Points represent individual samples, circles = females, triangles = males. Line represents linear regression (n = 90). R represents Pearson correlation coefficient.
