Variable Mean SD 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9
1. Depression (DASS) 2.34 3.45
2. Anxiety (DASS) 1.84 2.91 .58**

4. Total distress (DASS) 9.25 9.29 .86** .82** .90**
5. Overprotection (VCOPS) −.48 .84 −.00 .05 .02 .02
6. PedsQL-Totala 88.10 12.08 −.44** −.36** −.44** −.48** −.14**
7. PedsQL-Psb 87.00 13.76 −.42** −.38** −.44** −.48** −.13** .96**
8. FAQL-FAc 2.50 1.85 .12** .18** .13** .16** .10 −.34** −.35**

10. FAQL-EIe 2.28 1.61 .21** .27** .23** .27** .12 -.44** −.45** .84** .80

Note. Higher scores on the PedsQL indicate better quality of life, whereas higher scores on the FAQL indicate poorer quality of life. Inverse correlations between the two measures, therefore, indicate consistent reporting of quality of life on both measures.
