B unstandardized coefficient, CGAS Children’s Global Assessment Scale, CY-BOCS Children's Yale-Brown Obsessive–Compulsive Scale, FAS-PR Family Accommodation Scale-Parent Report, SDQ Strengths and Difficulties Questionnaire, SE standard error. Direct effects represent the effects of group adjusted for the mediator. Indirect effects represent the mediated effects of group. Total effects represent the sum of direct and indirect effects. Bold p-values indicate significance
