FIGURE 2.
Indirect effects of parenting skills on relation between Infant Behavior Program and responsive caregiving at 6-month follow-up. Note: Values outside the parentheses represent standardized regression weights and values inside the parentheses represent unstandardized regression weights; dotted line represents indirect effect. Model fit indices: CMIN χ2 = 2.58, p = .784; root mean square error of approximation < .001, PCLOSE: p = .845; comparative fit index = 1.00, Tucker-Lewis index = 1.00. Regression weights for covariates: maternal education, β = −0.10 (−0.08); infant age in months, β = −0.13 (−0.10); infant ethnicity, β = 0.08 (0.41); baseline maternal warmth/positive affect, β = 0.10 (0.09); baseline maternal sensitivity/responsivity, β = .014 (.015); and baseline parenting do skills β = 0.15 (0.036).
