Note. W1 = First assessment (first grade); W2 = Second assessment (1 year after W1). For simplicity, all regression coefficients (i.e., B, SE of B, and β) are from Step 5 analysis and based on the full information maximum likelihood (FIML) procedure using the maximum likelihood estimator. Sex: 0 = female, 1 = male; Ethnicity: 0 = non-African American, 1 = African American.
