†For home–clinic changes, where there were paired observations for both home and clinic, the ADHD group had n = 16 at Time 1 and n = 14 at Time 2; the non-ADHD group had n = 205 for Time 1 and n = 197 for Time 2. For Times 1–2 changes, where there were paired observation for both Times 1 and 2, the ADHD group had n = 28 for clinic and n = 14 for home; the non-ADHD group had n = 334 for clinic and n = 181 for home.
aTime 1, clinic 0.184 versus 0.261, p = .040; Time 1, home 0.286 versus 0.202, p = .261.
bTime 2, clinic 0.186 versus 0.299, p = .014; Time 2, home 0.224 versus 0.188, p > .9.
