The coding for type of approach was as follows: confronting 0 and non-confronting 1. The coding for school level was as follows: primary school 0 and secondary school 1. Interactions between grade level and each of the four predictors of interest (empathy arousal, condemning behavior, blaming child, and self-efficacy) were tested and were not significant. The interaction between empathy arousal and condemning behavior remains significant when these interactions are included in the model
