Regression of LTL of children on parental LTL. LTL was corrected for age and transformed to a standard normal distribution for parents and children separately. Children LTL regressed on midparent LTL (n = 56 children from 48 families). Children LTL regressed on paternal LTL (n = 58 children from 50 families). Children LTL regressed on maternal LTL (n = 64 children from 54 families).
