Figure 2. — Psychiatric disorders by separation/loss group.

Separation/loss group was significantly related to presence of any disorder, externalizing disorders, disruptive behavior disorders, and internalizing disorders (Χ2 = 7.42 to 13.66, p = .0064 to .0005). There also was a modest association with anxiety disorders (Χ2 = 5.19, p = .0228) but no significant association with ADHD or depressive disorders (Χ2 = 0.59 to 2.37, ns). In pairwise tests, children with multiple separations/losses were significantly more likely than children with no separation/loss to have any disorder, externalizing disorders, DBDs, and internalizing disorders (p < .05 to p < .005). Any disorder, externalizing disorders, and DBDs were also more common in children with multiple losses/separations compared to those in the single separation/loss group (p < .05). Means that share the same letter do not differ significantly.
