FIGURE 4.

Estimated latent change score model of the change scores predicted by the baseline scores. Analysis based on the second sample (n₂ = 468). BDI, depressive symptoms; COM, cognitive motivation; ESC, effortful self-control; t_1, before treatment; Δ, latent change score (i.e., the change from t₁ to t₂). (A) Standardized regression coefficients are displayed. One-sided solid and dashed lines refer to the model in Figure 1 and indicate directed effects (regression coefficients), two-sided gray arrows indicate undirected relationships (correlations). Coefficients in bold are significant for p < 0.05. (B) 95% confidence intervals of the unstandardized regression estimates, based on 1,000 bootstrap samples.
