Note. TSST—Trier Social Stress Test; Because of non-normal distributions, p-values and betas are reported for the log-transformed self-compassion score, and the square-root transformation of baseline anxiety. Adjusted models included terms for gender (male = 1, female = 0) and race (white = 1, other = 0).
