Notes: A significant b-weight indicates the semi-partial correlation is also significant. b represents unstandardized regression weights. sr² represents the semi-partial correlation squared. LL and UL indicate the lower and upper limits of a confidence interval, respectively. *indicates p < 0.05. **indicates p < 0.01.
