Note. Test values in bold surpass preset criteria. Models with a delta greater than 4 are notably inferior to the best model (Δ = 0); models with a delta greater than 10 fail to explain a substantial amount of variation in the model. PPV = positive predictive value. DISC = Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children.
The variables were socioeconomic status; maternal education, maternal depression, parenting practices, attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder, and parent satisfaction.
