aReported results are scaled scores with a mean of 10 (SD, 3). Outcomes were adjusted for the following covariates: bHispanic ethnicity, ccaregiver identity, dcaregiver education, esex, fage, ghousehold income, and hrace.

iP < .05 for unadjusted mean scores only.

jP < .05 for unadjusted and adjusted mean scores.
