OXT and Anxiety: Moderate (but nonsignificant) opposite relationships were evident for self-reported attachment avoidance (ρ = -0.30; p = 0.070, Fig. 3B),parent-reports of social difficulties (SRS-2; ρ = -0.31; p = 0.062, Fig. 3C) and anxiety (SCARED-NL; ρ = -0.32; p = 0.053, Fig. 3D) all indicating that improved clinical presentations at T1 were associated with higher T1 oxytocin levels.
