Fig. 3: Main and interaction effects of maternal prolonged stress on children’s error rates.
From: Witnessing their mother’s acute and prolonged stress affects executive functioning in children
In a, main effects of mothers’ PSS (Perceived Stress Scale; Cohen et al. 70) scores on children’s error rates in the category-switching task (Mayr & Kliegl, 60) are depicted. In b, interaction effects of the PSS with the experimental condition, i.e. a stress-free control task vs. the TSST (Trier Social Stress Test, Kirschbaum et al. 32), on children’s error rates are shown. The grey shading represents the standard error (SE). Four data points per dyad (n = 75) are shown due to the 2×2 task structure.
