Depiction of the significant interaction between negative affect and age. The straight line represents conditional effects of negative affect on valence bias at different ages and the curved lines reflect the 95% confidence interval for those effects. Negative affect was positively associated with a more negative valence bias, controlling for social connectedness, for individuals age 51.6 and older (i.e., beginning at 1.95 SDs above the mean of age).
