Longitudinal Correlational Matrix for Independent Variables at Phases 1 and 2 with depressive symptoms at Phases 2 and 3.

	Variable		CES-D Phases 2 and 3
			Independent variables Phases 1 and 2
			1	2	3	4	5	6
1	CES-D 02	394	—
2	CES-D 03	334	.66	—
3	GLOB 01	230	.32	.35	—
4	STAB 01	237	.30	.31	.67	—
5	GLOB 02	223	.46	.33	.54	.42	—
6	STAB 02	224	.44	.33	45	.56	.73	—

Note. CES-D 02 = Centre for Epidemiological Studies of Depression Scale, Phase 2, CES-D 03 = Centre for Epidemiological Studies of Depression Scale, Phase 3, GLOB 01 = Globality of Attributions for Negative Events, Phase 1, STAB 01 = Stability of Attributions for Negative Events, Phase 1, GLOB 02 = Globality of Attributions for Negative Events, Phase 2, and STAB 02 = Stability of Attributions for Negative Events, Phase 2.
Correlational = 394 (CES-D Phase 2, independent variables Phase 1); correlational = 334 (CES-D Phase 3, independent variables Phase 3); .
