Table 4.
Estimates of fixed effects for the psychopathology or emotion variables at Time T+1, predicting Maladaptive Daydreaming (MD) intensity or quantity at Time T (i.e., statistically significant effects suggest heightened psychopathology or emotion on the day following MD).

Each psychopathology or emotion variable was included in a separate model, which also controlled for the time variable, the weekday/weekend variable, age, and gender. MD, Maladaptive Daydreaming; OC, obsessive-compulsive; Neg., Negative; Pos., Positive; SE, standard error; CIl, CIu, lower and upper bounds within a 95% confidence interval. All data in the table are based on the pooled results of the imputed models, except for the semi-partial R2, because type III tests of fixed effects are produced only for individual datasets and not for the pooled imputed results; thus, this statistic is computed based on the original data.
