Background This study verifies the influence of daily stress on school adjustment through inattention and social withdrawal among children at community child centers.
Methods Analyses were performed on data collected from the Child Panel Survey of the Community Child Centers, followed by a series of regression analyses.
Results First, daily stress had a negative and significant influence on school adjustment. Second, both inattention and social withdrawal among children mediated the influence of daily stress on school adjustment. Finally, the influence of daily stress on school adjustment was serially dual-mediated through inattention and social withdrawal.
Conclusions This study presents evidence-based strategies that could help the school adjustment of children at community child centers.
