Fig. 4: Temporal network.

ES = emotion symptom; CP = conduct problem; H = hyperactivity; PP = peer problem; PS = pro-social; M1 = mother felt depressed; M2 = mother felt hopeless; M3 = mother felt restless/fidgety; M4 = mother felt everything an effort; M5 = mother felt worthless; M6 = mother felt nervous; F1 = father felt depressed; F2 = father felt hopeless; F3 = father felt restless/fidgety; F4 = father felt everything an effort; F5 = father felt worthless; F6 = father felt nervous; T1 = time 1; T2 = time 2. Nodes represent mental health symptoms of family members. Covariates were omitted in the graph. Edges represent cross-lagged effects, where a node at time T1 predicts other nodes at time T2. Blue edges indicate positive associations, whereas red edges indicate negative associations. Edge thickness and boldness reflect the strength of associations. The pie chart around a node indicates the predictability of that node in the network. Predictability represents the proportion of variance in each T2 node explained by its connected T1 node.
