95 % CI 95 % confidence interval, SE standard error, NS not statistically significant

aInteraction terms positive affect: previous mindfulness × intervention, previous positive affect × intervention

bInteraction terms negative affect: previous mindfulness × intervention, previous negative affect × intervention

cInteraction with group condition was non-significant; therefore, data were collapsed across the control and intervention period

dInteraction term intervention × previous negative affect was significant; therefore, split file on condition was performed
