a

AOR = adjusted odds ratio

b

CI = 95% confidence interval

c

Controlling for age, ethnicity, public assistance, not living with both biological parents, parental drug/alcohol problems and site

d

A p value for gender difference is listed here if the AORs for boys and girls, for the particular anxiety disorder, were found to be significantly different, using the Wald test for equality of coefficients; NS = not significant

e

In addition to the variables controlled for in model, depressive disorders were also controlled for here

+

p < 0.10;

*

p < 0.05;

**

p < 0.01
