	Model 1 Interaction R2 = .48
	β	p	95% CI
Intercept	200.9	<.0001	[142.1, 259.8]
Telomere length at 6 months	−83.6	.02	[−155.03, 112.3]
Foster mom	−43.2	.0003	[−64.7, −21.6]
Sex	−4.2	.58	[−19.8, 11.4]
Bio mom	−31.9	.002	[−51.1, −12.6]
Foster Mom ×Bio Mom	36.8	.01	[9.3, 64.5]

Note: Model testing the prediction of mean cortisol level by foster mother group, biological mother group, and sex of the infant including effect of TL at 6 months.
