Notes: All values are unstandardized betas from final step. Terms used to compute interactions and quadratics are mean centered. Model 0 shows the values of covariates entered as the first step in all subsequent models. Model 1 adds mother and father overcontrol as predictors entered at step 2. Models 2 and 3 test for curvilinear effects of mothers’ and fathers’ overcontrol, respectively, added as separate step 3s. Models 4 and 5 test for interactive effects of attunement with mothers’ and fathers’ overcontrol, respectively. When significant curvilinear effects are found in step 3 (models 2 or 3), they are retained in tests of interactions (step 4, models 4A and 5A). When no significant curvilinear effects are found in step 3, they are not retained, and interactions are tested in a new step 3 (models 4B and 5B). Left panel N = 104. Right panel N = 101.
Left panel: baseline child externalizing symptoms; right panel: baseline child anxiety symptoms.
