Concurrent and prospective relationships between maternal psychopathology and children’s separation anxiety, other anxiety, and depression factors. Notes: Solid lines indicate significant paths at p < 0.05. ***p < 0.001; **p < 0.01; *p < 0.05; ^p < 0.10. Dx, diagnosis; M, mother report; F, father report; C, child report; ASA-27, Adult Separation Anxiety Symptom Questionnaire; K-SADS, The Kiddie Schedule for Affective Disorders and Schizophrenia Present and Lifetime Version; SCARED, Screen for Child Anxiety Related Disorders; CDI, Children’s Depression Inventory. Maternal and child diagnoses at age 9 are from lifetime assessments. Child diagnoses at age 12 cover the interval since the last assessment. Covariances between independent variables are not shown, nor are covariances between children’s psychopathology factors, which were all significant at p < 0.001. The residual variances of indicators by the same reporter were permitted to covary, as were the K-SADS indicators.
