This regression model shows the relationship of sex and puberty on somatization. The degree of somatization was determined using total scores (higher scores corresponding to higher somatization). Irrespective of pubertal status, females endorsed more somatic complaints than males. The males (n = 53) are circles with a dashed trend line; the females (n = 90) are triangles with a solid trend line.
