Note. PSS = Perceived Stress Scale; CAR increase = wake-up value minus peak cortisol value; cortisol slope = peak value minus last evening value; Attribution body esteem = Attribution subscale of Body Esteem Scale for Adolescents and Adults; Positive exchanges = Total number of positive exchanges from PNSE (Positive and Negative Social Exchanges); Negative exchanges = Total number of negative exchanges from PNSE; Bothersomeness = Total bothersomeness ratings for negative exchanges from PNSE; Satisfaction = Total satisfaction rating for positive exchanges from PNSE; % Neg Exchanges = Total Negative Exchanges from PNSE divided by Total Positive Exchanges from PNSE; ISEL = Interpersonal Support Evaluation List – Global score.
