The relation between negative reactivity during the still-face episode and CU in early childhood is plotted as a function of mother-directed gaze during the face-to-face episode. The simple slopes for low face-to-face gaze and mean face-to-face gaze are significantly different from zero. The slope for high face-to-face gaze is not significantly different from zero. Mother-directed gaze during the face-to-face episode seems to attenuate the negative association between reactivity and CU
