Note. Model 1 = Cross-lagged model for mother and father warmth and teacher-rated child ASD symptoms; Model 2 = Cross-lagged model for mother and father criticism and teacher-rated child ASD symptoms; Model 3 = Cross-lagged model for mother and father warmth and teacher-rated child behavior problems; Model 4 = Cross-lagged model for mother and father criticism and teacher-rated child behavior problems. χ2 = Chi-squared test of absolute model fit; P = χ2 p-value; RMSEA = Root Mean Square Error of Approximation; TLI = Tucker-Lewis Index; CFI = Confirmatory Fit Index. All fit statistics reported were for the default model.
