Multiple group path analysis. Path coefficients: depressed/non-depressed or averaged across all mothers; single arrow paths=predictions; double arrow paths=correlations; circles=latent variables (items not shown for the sake of a simple presentation); rectangular=manifest variable. All parameters shown are significant at p<0.05. The pathways from child emotional and behavioral dysregulation (Child Dysreg) to dependent interpersonal stress (DIS) and contextual risks (C. Risk) failed to reach significance; predictions between DIS and C. Risk are not shown for the simplicity of the presentation (and because these relationships are not central to the current research questions), but are available on request from the author.
