  1. Note. Group coded 1 for underweight group and 0 for normal weight group; sex coded 1 for female and 0 for male. Variance of internalization across individuals and wavesā€‰=ā€‰11.8. Variance of externalization across individuals and wavesā€‰=ā€‰16.2. Residual variance is the variance of residuals implied by the model.
