Table 3. Linear regressions between newborns’ average dwell time and effortful control, surgency and total behavioral difficulties score in childhood.
| N = 80 | |||||||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Independent Variable: Average Dwell Time | |||||||
| Dependent Variable | B | β | t | 95% CI for β Lower Bound | 95% CI for β Upper Bound | R2 | p-value |
| Effortful Control | .03 | .03 | .30 | −.17 | .23 | .001 | .54 |
| Surgency | −.25 | −.25 | −2.24 | −.49 | −.02 | .04 | .02 |
| Total Behavioral Difficulties | −.28 | −.28 | −2.09 | −.55 | −.01 | .05 | .04 |
Note: The “B” and “β” refer to the unstandardized and standardized regression coefficients respectively followed by the “t-statistic”. The “R2” represents the variance explained by the independent variable on the dependent variables after regressing out the effect of the covariates; finally, the p-value represents the value of statistical significance of the effect of the independent variable on the dependent variables, while keeping constant the effect of the covariates.
