Statistically significant paths. This model includes paths that were statistically significant in the hypothesized model. Path analyses controlled for child sex and age, presence of father, presence of siblings, attending kindergarten, and perceived family socioeconomic status. All observed variables are in boxes, and error terms (e1–e5) are in ellipses. Model fit statistics: χ2 (22) = 148.84, CFI = .94; IFI = .94; RMSEA = .06. *p < .05; **p < .01; ***p < .001
