Descriptive statistics and bivariate analyses (e.g., correlations, t-tests) examined associations among demographics, medical characteristics, and focal variables. An Actor\u2013Partner Interdependence Model (APIM) evaluated dyadic associations between child and caregiver self-reports of anxiety (independent variables) and child self- and caregiver proxy-reports of child overall health (dependent variables). Associations between independent and dependent variables for one reporter are actor effects, whereas across reporters are partner effects.\n                    <\/jats:p>\n                  <\/jats:sec>\n                  <jats:sec>\n                    <jats:title>Results<\/jats:title>\n                    <jats:p>\n                      Among 76 child (88.2% White; 34.2% Female;\n                      <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200913.35-years-old,\n                      <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20093.20) and caregiver (92.1% White, 69.7% Female) dyads, children (\n                      <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200946.64,\n                      <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20099.09) and caregivers (\n                      <jats:italic>M<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u200939.33,\n                      <jats:italic>SD<\/jats:italic>\n                      \u2009=\u20098.97) reported below-average child overall health.
