Correlations pertaining to thanksgiving (retrospective) are reported above the diagonal, and correlations pertaining to the winter holidays (prospective) are reported below the diagonal. ***Correlation is significant at the 0.001 level (two-tailed), **Correlation is significant at the 0.01 level (two-tailed), and *Correlation is significant at the 0.05 level (two-tailed). Medium and strong correlations are written in bold (r > 0.3). N = 1549 for the variable objective restrictions (coded as 0 for the US states without restrictions) otherwise N = 1553.
