Note. Bolded cells depict the pseudo-R2 value for the corresponding model. Supplemental models were run with adolescents’ schools included as a multinomial covariate. Results were nearly identical across outcomes, so the more parsimonious models were retained.

a

Discrepancy Score = Standardized Parent Report – Standardized Adolescent Report

b

Reference = Low Parent – Low Adolescent.

c

Nearly perfect association between membership and outcome; confidence intervals could not be calculated.
