Paired t tests (n = 329) revealed that youths self-reported significantly greater mood concerns on the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (M = 5.29) than caregivers self-reported on their version of the Mood Disorder Questionnaire (M = 3.14), p < .001.

In subsequent analyses, Global Family Environment Scale scores were reversed by subtracting from 100 so that high scores indicated poorer family functioning.
