Higher parental antisocial behavior (B = 2.23, t(318) = 6.63, p < .01, R2 = 9.92%) and alcohol problems (B = 0.69, t(318) = 2.01, p = .05, R2 = 1.30%) predicted higher CBCL adolescent externalizing. Higher parental antisocial behavior (B = 1.61, t(289) = 4.00, p < .01, R2 = 4.93%) and alcohol problems (B = 2.14, t(290) = 5.49, p < .01, R2 = 6.57%) also predicted higher TRF externalizing. Higher parental antisocial behavior (B = 0.36, t(316) = 3.94, p < .01, R2 = 2.32%) and alcohol problems (B = 0.21, t(316) = 2.35, p = .02, R2 = 0.68%)4 also predicted a greater number of life events. We note that due to convergence problems, the random effects for slope were dropped from these particular analyses.
