Note. PE = positive emotion, SS = perceived social support from partner, NS = perceived negative social support from partner. Wave 1 = prenatal period, Wave 2 = 1-month postpartum, Wave 3 = 4-months postpartum, Wave 4 = 9-months postpartum. Values presented on the diagonal, in bold text, represent the correlation between maternal and paternal levels of each variable at that wave
