Task 1 PM and maternal BDI-II predicting task 2 PM when controlling for task 1 PM 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
