*Significant mean difference between groups at baseline, P<0.10;
†Significant mean difference between the yoga and wait list control groups at follow-up, P<0.10.
Note: Data for pain intensity at follow-up are not presented or analyzed because there was a significant difference between these groups at baseline. Children’s Depression Inventory (CDI) data were missing for two participants in the yoga condition at baseline. Revised Child Manifest Anxiety Scale (RCMAS) data were missing for one participant in the wait list condition at baseline.
