In Class I, for example, no subjects had GTS, 13% had CT, 15% had subclinical OCD, 9% had ADHD combined and 2% had ADHD inattentive, comprising as a whole a minimally affected class. There were a total of 29.5% × 952 = 281 subjects in class I.

S-OCD = Subclinical OCD

ADHD = Attention-Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder (C = combined, HI = Hyperactive-Impulsive, IA = Inattentive)
