Positive mood (task 1) predicting positive mood (task 2) and child SCC predicting hostility (task 2) were no longer significant following Bonferroni correction

Task 2 = Stressful interaction task; Observed mood (task 1) = Observed mood during the pleasant activity interaction task for each dependent variable; PCC= Primary control coping; SCC = Secondary control coping; DC = Disengagement coping; BDI-II = Beck Depression Inventory-II
