This table reports OLS coefficient estimates (robust standard errors corrected for clustering on the individual level in parentheses). The dependent variable is adjusted average pumps, i.e., the average number of pumps per trial in the BART excluding trials on which the balloon exploded. “Touch” is a dummy for the touch condition. “Round” is a dummy for the second round of the tasks, i.e., the second time the participants performed the tasks. “Touch × Round” is the interaction between the touch condition and the task round, allowing the effect of touch to differ across the two task rounds. “Female” is a gender dummy. “Touch × Female” is the interaction between the touch condition and gender, allowing the effect of touch to differ between men and women. “Age” is the participant's age in years. “Anxiety” is the participant's score on the attachment anxiety subscale. “Touch × Anxiety” is the interaction between the touch condition and attachment anxiety, allowing the effect of touch to vary with the level of attachment anxiety. “Avoidance” is the participant's score on the attachment avoidance subscale. “Touch × Avoidance” is the interaction between the touch condition and attachment avoidance, allowing the effect of touch to vary with the level of attachment avoidance.
