Note. Unstandardized coefficients (and standard errors) are reported. Cortisol and sAA levels are transformed variables. Child gender was coded dichotomously with 0 for boys and 1 for girls. Bolded values indicate significance. Child and adolescent adjustment were run as separate multiple regression analyses.
