Greater number of stepped-care referrals in comparison to past recruitment periods is due to the addition of the POND Network in referral population.
Comparative analyses were calculated for consent [χ2(2) = 7.00, p = .030] and completion rates [χ2(1) = 3.89, p = .048] using Chi-square analyses. Statistically significant differences are bolded.
Across feasibility studies, samples were comparable in parent education, heritage culture, parent participating, parent age, and child age. Due to the addition of the POND neurodevelopmental disability research cohort, participants in the current study had significantly greater males and ADHD/ASD diagnoses in comparison to past implementation samples.
