The conditional parallel process growth curve models, with the latent intercepts of social support and depressive symptoms (top), and social support and substance use problems (bottom) regressed on age, race, sex, and length of stay in the current neighborhood. αss: Intercept for social support; βss1: Linear slope for social support; βss2: Quadratic slope for social support; αdep: Intercept for depressive symptoms; βdep1: Linear slope for depressive symptoms; βdep2: Quadratic slope for depressive symptoms; αsu: Intercept for substance use problems; βsu1: Linear slope for substance use problems; βsu2: Quadratic slope for substance use problems. ss@0-ss@18, dep@0-dep@18, and su@0-su@18 represent data over four observations for social support, depressive symptoms, and substance use problems. The residual variances (error variances) are not shown for better readability. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01
