Note. PTSD = posttraumatic stress disorder.

The Children’s Depression Inventory (Kovacs, 1992) loaded onto the depression latent construct significantly (B = .14, p < .001); the National Institute of Mental Health Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children’s (Shaffer et al., 2000) conduct disorder symptoms (B = 1.59, p < .001) and the Delinquency Behavior Questionnaire score (B = .53, p < .001) loaded onto the externalizing latent construct significantly.

Covariance estimate.
