Maternal Reading Self-Efficacy Associated with Perceived Barriers to Reading

Table 4

Reading self-efficacy predicting reason that makes it hard to read (OLS).

	Mother-centered barriers	Child-centered barriers	^aTotal barriers
	(SE)	(SE)	(SE)
Maternal reading self-efficacy	−0.25^** (0.08)	−0.33^*** (0.08)	−0.33^*** (0.08)

Note: Standard errors are in parentheses; standardized regression coefficients are displayed; covariates include receipt of public assistance, married/living as married, prenatal substance use, education, race, and mother's age; the singular structural barrier was not included because it is a dichotomous variable; ^** < 0.01; ^*** < 0.001.
^aTotal barriers include mother-centered, child-centered, and the singular structural barrier.
