| Internalizing behavior problems | Externalizing behavior problems | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Predictor variable | Zero-order correlation | Standard ß-coefficent | Zero-order correlation | Standard ß-coefficent |
| Sex [male] | -.04 | -.03 | -.06 | < −.01 |
| Age | .18** | .07 | .10 | < .01 |
| SES | .04 | .03 | -.01 | -.03 |
| Number of family violence related events | .55*** | .39*** | .64*** | .44*** |
| Number of mass trauma | .50*** | .34*** | .50*** | .24*** |
| Parental care [low] | .43*** | .20*** | .47*** | .11* |
| Number of mass trauma x Parental care | .23*** | .16** | .32*** | .07 |
Internalized behavior problems: Adjusted R 2 = .42; F(9, 340) = 28.53; p < .001. Externalized behavior problems: Adjusted R 2 = .47; F(9, 340) = 35.42; p < .001. *p < .05. **p < .01. ***p < .001. Controlled for location (included as a fixed factor)
