Notes: Unstandardized betas, standard error, and p values are reported for the main effects for each of the four mindsets. Mixed-effects models for antibody response controlled for timepoint (after month 1 and month 6 following the initial vaccine series), vaccine type (Janssen/Johnson & Johnson, Moderna, Pfizer/BioNTech), the timepoint by vaccine type interaction, baseline anti-spike IgG, age, sex, BMI, and smoking status. For side effects, a Poisson regression controlled for time of dose (Dose 1 vs. Dose 2), vaccine type, and optimism. For vaccine-related anxiety, a mixed-effects model was used for the time of dose (Dose 1 vs. Dose 2), vaccine type, and optimism. For general stress, sadness, and happiness across the 0–5 days, the mixed effects models controlled for interaction with day, time of dose (Dose 1 vs. Dose 2), vaccine type, time of day (morning vs. evening), and optimism. Significant findings at the p ≤ 0.05 level are bolded.
