*

Significant at the .05 level, two-sided test

Empty cells indicate the disorder specified in the row was not included in the model.

a

Bivariate models (each disorder in a separate discrete time survival model) include the following controls: age, age-squared, age cohorts, sex, and person-year.

b

Multivariate additive model (all disorders together in a discrete time survival model) includes the following covariates: age, age-squared, age cohorts, sex, and person-year.

c

Multivariate interactive model (all disorders together in a discrete time survival model controlling for number of disorders as interactions) includes the following covariates: age, age-squared, age cohorts, sex, and person-year.

d

Impulse-control disorders assessed in ages 18-44. In multivariate models, impulse-control disorders coded to 0 or “no” for Part II cases older than 44.

e

The group effect Chi square tests the set of coefficients for type of disorder for significance, while the individual Chi squares only test presence versus absence of each DSM-IV/CIDI disorder.
