Regression results of interaction analyses for mothers divided into groups based on pre-intervention (T1) scores of KPCS_ Results compare mothers at follow-up who received the IYPB program to those who received usual care within the groups scoring in the lowest 50th percentiles and the highest 50th percentiles_
