Note: Logistic and multiple regressions were used in predicting categorical variables and continuous variables, respectively. Unstandardized coefficients are presented for logistic regressions and standardized coefficients are presented for multiple regressions.

a

Mother report.

b

Mother and child report.

c

Child report.

d

Girl = 0.

e

Coefficients for this block are not presented, given that the block was nonsignificant for all outcomes. Betas for the other predictors did not change significantly as a result of this block; thus, the coefficients presented in block 3 (column 3) represent those for the final model.
