Among the anxiety-related disorder subscale in the PAI phobia (β=0.119, p=0.022) and traumatic stress (β=0.375, p=0.007) associated with the level of depression at third grade. Somatization (β=0.631, p＜0.001) in the PAI associated with the level of anxiety at third year. The anxiety (β=-0.531, p＜0.001) in the PAI was positive associated with the resilience at third grade.
