Table 3.

Means (unstandardized) and variances of the level at t₃ and change parameter for children's BMI–SDS and internalizing and externalizing symptoms.

	Level at t3		Change parameter
	Mean	Variance	Mean	Variance (fixed)
Child BMI–SDSa	0.37***	0.58***	−0.09**	0.00
Child internalizing symptomsb	0.17***	0.01***	0.01	0.00
Child externalizing symptomsc	0.36***	0.06***	−0.03**	0.00

^aModel fit: ${\chi }_{(\mathit{\text{3}},N=\mathit{\text{194}})}^{\mathit{\text{2}}}$ = 1.04, p = 0.79, CFI = 1.00, RMSEA = 0.00.

^bModel fit: ${\chi }_{(\mathit{\text{54}},N=\mathit{\text{194}})}^{\mathit{\text{2}}}$ = 76.53, p = 0.02, CFI = 0.97, RMSEA = 0.05.

^cModel fit: ${\chi }_{(\mathit{\text{49}},N=\mathit{\text{194}})}^{\mathit{\text{2}}}$ = 111.14, p < 0.001, CFI = 0.95, RMSEA = 0.08.

^**p < 0.01;

^***p < 0.001. Because we used latent variables based on CBCL subscales, these numbers differ from the means of the manifest sum scores reported in Table 2.
