Note. BF = birth father, BM = birth mother, AM = adoptive mother, AF = adoptive father, p = psychopathology, anxiety = anxiety symptoms, dep = depressive symptoms, int = internalizing behavior, ODD/CD = Oppositional Defiant Disorder/Conduct Disorder symptoms, ADHD = Attention Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder symptoms. Childhood disorder symptoms from the PAPA were collected between ages 6–8. Correlations were estimated after accounting for covariates (prenatal risk, openness of adoption, child).
