Note. The intercept for the model was 2.05. The R2 of the model was .33, F(14, 677) = 23.26, p < .05. The R2 of the same model, excluding attachment-related anxiety as a covariate, was .26. Boldface is used to highlight statistically significant predictors. Gender was coded as 0 for female and 1 for male. Ethnicity was coded as 1 for White/non-Hispanic and 0 otherwise.
