Figure 3.
In girls, high pregnancy-specific anxiety at 15, 19, and 25 but not at 31 and 37 weeks gestation was associated with lower performance on the Flanker task (A, N = 49; p < 0.01). No significant association between pregnancy-specific anxiety and performance on this task was observed in boys (B, N = 39). For visualization purposes, pregnancy-specific anxiety slopes predicted by the HLM model are presented based on Flanker test scores 1 SD ± mean.
