Note. Latent class membership was based on the model with child sex included as a direct covariate on the indicator variables, i.e., Mom and Dad achievement emphases. Mom and Dad Achievement Emphases variables were based on children's reports on each individual parent's values. All variables included in the model were z-scores, and values here represent standardized scores.

a

Values in parentheses represent the raw scores for Mom and Dad Achievement emphases in each of the latent classes.

Pairwise mean comparisons are indicated using subscripts, where values with the same subscripts had statistically equivalent means.
