Note. β = standardized estimates. b = unstandardized estimates. LL = lower limit of 95% confidence interval. UL = upper limit of 95% confidence interval. Bold = p < .05. BI = Behavioral Inhibition. Gender was coded as females = 1 and males = 0. Maternal Ethnicity was coded as Non-Hispanic Caucasian = 1 and Other = 0. Maternal Education was coded as High school graduate = 0, College Graduate = 1, Graduate school graduate = 2, and Other = missing.
