Note: Adjusted odds ratios (aORs) reflect pairwise comparisons with the resilient trajectory. Continuous variables were standardized such that aORs represent the change in odds of trajectory membership per 1 standard deviation increase in the predictor, adjusted for all other predictors in the model. CI = confidence interval.

^* p < .05 for the pairwise comparison (uncorrected).
