Note. All predictors were standardized. Race → risk factor represents relations between race and risk factors. Risk factor → arrest represents relations between the risk factors and arrest. In these multivariate models, nonsignificant paths were found between race and general arrest (B = .07, p = .44), violence-related arrest (B = .06, p = .49), and theft arrest (B = .07, p = .40). However, race significantly predicted drug-related arrest (B = .22, p = .03). Est. = estimate; ADHD = attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder; SES = socioeconomic status; acad. = academic.
