Includes subjects with F-scores of 0–3 and adjusted for race, sex, educational level of the primary caretaker, marital status of the primary caretaker, and urinary creatinine. All scales except conduct problems and leadership included 171 subjects. Conduct problems and leadership items are queried only on the 6- to 11-year BASC-PRS, so the number of subjects with these scales was 159.
