Table 1. Pairwise comparisons of the high BI, low PA, and comparison groups on behavioral approach in novel and non-novel situations.

Behavioral approach	BI	Low PA	Control	F
Novel situations M(SD)	-.74(2.37)^a	-.71(2.06)^a	.06(1.93)^b	36.77^***
Non-novel situations M(SD)	.54(2.08)^a	-1.84(2.16)^b	.03(1.85)^a	4.31^*

Note. Superscripts indicate differences at p≤ .05. BI = behavioral inhibition; PA = positive affectivity. Values are Z-scores.
