Results of full structural equation model with significant paths from childhood maltreatment to suicide attempts through a latent construct composed of symptoms of four psychiatric disorders (depression, dysthymia, PTSD, and GAD) and three separate paths representing symptoms of antisocial personality disorder and substance use, and homelessness. Analyses control for age, sex, race and IQ score. Total effect = 0.53***; indirect effects through psychiatric disorders = 0.18***, ASPD = 0.13***, substance use = 0.07**, and homelessness = 0.10**; total indirect effects = 0.48***. Model fit indices: χ 2(df = 44) = 1367.301***, CFI = 0.434, TLI = 0.640, RMSEA = 0.100***. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ***p<0.001
