B = unstandardized regression weight, SE B = standard error of B, * p < 0. 05, ** P < 0.01. The model was adjusted for age, gender, SES, ethnicity, and other disorders (i.e., Anxiety Bands, Eating Disorder Bands, ADHD Bands, ODD Bands and CD Bands). To save space, only covariates with a significant effect on impairment are presented in the table. All steps are incremental, variables of previous steps are included in the model but to save space are not presented in the table. R² change effect size conventions: 0.01 = small, 0.06 = medium, 0.14 [58]
† Due to some missing values in parental attachment and SES, a total of 322 adolescents, 254 mothers, and 184 fathers were included in the main analysis.
