Note. Ŷ_ti = Maternal Sensitivity from child age 3 to 5 years; ŶDiff_ti = The difference score in maternal sensitivity between the Challenge and Free Play tasks from child age 3 to 5 years; Status = developmental delay (0=TD, 1=DD); ChildGender = child gender (boy = 1, girl = −1); Time = age in years.
