Final Regression Equations Predicting Mothers’ IFIRS Positive and Negative Communication Using Child Age, Family Income, Mothers’ Depression Symptoms, and Mothers’ CCS Codes
| IFIRS positive communication | IFIRS negative communication | |
|---|---|---|
| Predictor | β | β |
| Income | .27** | −.15 |
| Child age | −.29** | n.s. |
| BDI | −.19* | .23* |
| CCS reflections | .21* | n.s. |
| CCS reframes | n.s. | .26** |
| CCS imperatives | −.25* | n.s. |
| CCS topic maintenance | n.s. | −.29** |
| Total adjusted R2 | .30 | .30 |
Note. CCS = Contingency Coding System; IFIRS = Iowa Family Interaction Rating Scale; BDI = Beck Depression Inventory-II total score; β = standardized beta; n.s. = indicates that the variable did not meet criteria (p ≤ .05) to be entered by forward selection into the equation.
*p < .05; **p < .01.
