Note: Correlations with MEE and child psychopathology were calculated using Pearson correlation coefficient, correlations with maternal psychopathology using Spearman correlation coefficient. Numbers under the diagonal represent correlations at baseline; numbers above the diagonal represent the correlations at follow-up. ADHD = attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder.
