Notes. p < .05 for all correlation coefficients. LS = life satisfaction, DM = reversed-scored depressed mood, PA = Positive affectivity. Bold values are monotrait-heteromethod correlations. Italic and underlined values are heterotrait-monomethod correlations. All other values are heterotrait-heteromethod correlations.
