Note. All latent variable variances could be constrained across sex with no decrement in fit, except for the variance of the P factor in the parent-ratings model; although covariances with this factor were equated across sex, separate correlations are shown due to slight differences in the standardized estimates. For the teacher-ratings model, the presences of two correlation estimates indicate that the covariances were allowed to differ across sex. The Intercept–Intercept, Slope–Slope, and cross-trait Intercept–Slope correlations were fixed to zero, but the within-trait Intercept–Slope correlations were estimated. For teacher ratings the Intercept-Slope correlations were as follows: internalizing females r= −.55, p<.001; internalizing males r= −.35, p=.046; externalizing females r= −.55, p<.001; externalizing males r= −.42, p=.007. For parent ratings the Intercept-Slope correlations were as follows: internalizing females r= − .45, p=.004; internalizing males r= −.34, p=.067; externalizing females r= −.70, p<.001; externalizing males r= −.35, p=.011.

^*p<.05, and italics font indicates p<.10, as indicated by z-tests formed from the ratio of the parameter divided by its standard error.
