Note: Bolded coefficients indicate stability from T to T+1. Bolded and Italicized coefficients indicate lag predictive effects from Parent to Child and Child to Parent. Means and SD are given for the PCL and TSCYC without a log transformation. Correlations are given with the log transformation. Because Ns vary at each time point some correlation coefficients are significant whereas others are not simply because of the N (e.g., child symptoms at age 8 and mother symptoms at age 5 [r = .21; N=100] have a statistically significant, but smaller correlation coefficient compared to child symptoms at age 8 and mother symptoms at age 7 [r=.23; N =51]).
