Note. Effect size classifications are based on Cohen (1988)’s classification scheme. All effect sizes were converted to a common index of R2 for ease of comparison. S = small effect size; M = medium effect size, L = large effect size; ER = early resilience (earlier age of onset associated with better outcomes); EV = early vulnerability (earlier age of onset associated with worse outcomes); U = a nonlinear association.
