Low/Low (A), scored lowest on both RISQ affect scales. Average (B), average scores on both RISQ affect scales. High Avoid (C), high Avoidance group. High App (D), high Approach group. Borderline personality features scores derived from consolidated z-score totals reflecting the Personality Assessment Inventory (PAI)-BOR and the SCID-IV Borderline personality disorder symptom counts. MASQ, Mood and Anxiety Symptom Questionnaire – Mini. MAST/AD, Michigan Assessment-Screening Test/Alcohol-Drug. Evaluation of the statistical significance of the difference in the magnitude of pairs of correlations was conducted using t-tests to compare dependent correlations. C. Prob., conditional probability of class membership.
