M SD M SD M SD
Sociodemographic risk 1.69 1.63 2.83 1.83 3.27 1.42

PTSD symptoms 0.54 0.96 1.28 0.99 1.96 0.85

Note. Exposure to any trauma (maltreatment, partner violence) was associated with greater sociodemographic risk, lower preschool and school-age competence, and greater PTSD symptoms than exposure to no trauma (ps < .01). Exposure to both trauma types (maltreatment and partner violence) was associated with greater PTSD symptoms than exposure to one type (p = .038).
