Estwife and esthusb, parameter estimates for wife and husband, respectively; estdiff, difference between spouses’ parameter estimates; SDdiff, standard deviation of posterior distribution of difference estimates; CI, credibility interval for differences estimates; LL, lower limit; UL, upper limit. Evening = evening report; morning = morning report. Spouse positive events = positive events with spouse; stress spouse = stressfulness of relations with spouse
