Notes:
Based on 49 recordings of a 20-minute encounter with delivery rated high in MI spirit (x > 5 on Likert scale).
Intercept corresponds to the 1st quartile interval of the encounter.
Early-session trajectory corresponds to subsequent quartile intervals of the encounter.
Late-session trajectory corresponds to final quartile interval of the encounter.
R:Q computed as (Total Reflections)/(Total Questions).
%OQ computed as (Open Questions)/(Total Questions).
%CR computed as (Complex Reflections)/(Total Reflections).
