95% CI | [−0.13, 0.08] | [−1.69, −0.35] | [−1.26, −0.15] | [−4.85, 1.23] | [−0.19, −0.05] | [−0.87, 3.93] |
Note: Degrees of freedom (df) that include decimals indicate t tests that violated the homogeneity of variance assumption, which we corrected for with the use of Welch t tests. MP, Maternal punitiveness; HAB, hostile attributional bias; ARG, aggressive response generation; VA, violent attitudes; OAR, official arrest record; EA, early adulthood; AB, antisocial behavior.
