Note. Standardized regression coefficients from the final model are reported. Demographic covariates included child age and gender, parent gender, family socioeconomic status, and presence/absence of relapse. Johnson–Neyman significance value indicates the value of child life events at or below which the moderation effect is significant.

BSI = Brief Symptom Inventory; GSI = Global Severity Index; CDI = Children's Depression Inventory; SCARED = Screen for Child Anxiety-Related Emotional Disorders; UCLA = University of California at Los Angeles Posttraumatic Stress Disorder Reaction Index.
