Table 9.

Standardised parameter estimates (with 95% confidence intervals) for best fitting models (recovered and persistent groups of children).

	A	E	Threshold 1
RECOVERED GROUP

Boys			1.36 (1.31 - 1.40)
	.67 (.60 - .74)	.33 (.26 - .40)
Girls			1.53 (1.48 - 1.58)
PERSISTENT GROUP

Boys			2.09 (2.01 - 2.17)
	.60 (.28 - .82)	.40 (.18 - .72)
Girls			2.54 (2.42 - 2.66)

Note: Threshold values refer to equivalent cutoff values in normal distributions (i.e. a threshold value of 1.78 refers to the top 3.7% of the distribution). The non-overlapping threshold values for boys and girls indicate the fact that affected girls are at the higher end of the distribution compared to boys.
