Note: Variables for 18 and 30 months are along the vertical and horizontal axes, respectively. EC, effortful control; O, observed; Unsup., unsupportive; Sup., supportive; Sens., sensitivity; Warm., warmth; P, parent reported; EXT, externalizing; C, caregiver reported; M, mother reported; Sep. Dis., separation distress.
