Figure 2.

Lability/negativity model. Structural equation model depicting the mediational roles of positive parenting, positive and negative family expressiveness, and maternal sensitive guidance at T1 on the relations between maltreatment and child lability/negativity at T3 and latent change in lability/negativity from T1 to T3. Nonsignificant pathways are indicated by thin dashed lines and statistically significant pathways are indicated by solid lines. Standardized coefficients are reported. L/N = Lability/Negativity.
