^aChild reported;

^bScale ranged from 1 (never) to 4 (almost every day);

^cScale ranged from 0 (not at all) to 4 (most of the time). The following variables were tested for inclusion in this model: child demographic characteristics (i.e., gender and ethnic background), child hurricane exposure, caregiver characteristics (i.e., employment status), caregivers’ distress and PTSS, perceived caregiver distress (i.e., too upset to talk, unavailability), perceived parental warmth, and coping advice (i.e., self-distraction, active coping, and denial). Nonsignificant variables (p > .05) were not included in the final model. Model 1 Adjusted R² = .32, p <.001; Model 2 Adjusted R² = .48, p < .01.

^†p = .06.
