  1. *p < .05, ***p < .001.
  2. For CAR, CIs (95%) for the third step were as follows: sex (-34.80/-12.66), school year (-15.13/4.52), living arrangements (-6.23/-25.50), sex٭living arrangements (-34.94/21.04).
  3. For cortisol decline, CIs (95%) for the third step were as follows: sex (-85/-.06), school year (-.44/.26), living arrangements (-77/.37), sex٭living arrangements (-.56/1.45).
  4. Note: Sex: 0 = girls, 1 = boys; School year: grade 8 = 0; grade 9 = 1; Living arrangements: One home = 0, JPC = 1.
