Note. 0 = Comparison, 1=Inattentive, 2 = Combined. Y = young adult self-report; P = parent’s report on young adult. SNAP = Swanson, Nolan, and Pelham; DISC = Diagnostic Interview Schedule for Children-IV; ACBL = Adult Behavior Checklist; ASR = Adult Self-Report; SRD = Self-Report of Delinquency; BDI = Beck Depression Inventory-II; SUQ = Substance Use Questionnaire; EAT = Eating Attitudes Test; EDI = Eating Disorder Inventory-2; CIS = Columbia Impairment Scale; WIAT = Wechsler Individual Achievement Test-II; SIQ = Self-Injury Questionnaire; Med hx = medication history; Other = non-stimulant psychotropic medication; DBQ = Driving Behavior Questionnaire; N/A = not applicable (i.e., no ANCOVA because of lack of significance of ANOVA).

a

Significance: One-way ANOVA for continuous variables; Pearson chi-square statistic for categorical variables.

b

Effect sizes: Cohen’s d for continuous variables and odds ratio for dichotomous variables.

c

Tukey’s test for each pairwise comparison;

*

= significant at the .05 level.

d

Covariates: W1 age, W1 maternal education, W1 family income, W1 child FSIQ, W1 comorbid ODD/CD (from P DISC), W1 comorbid anxiety or depression (from P DISC), W1 reading disorder, medication status (any stimulants or other psychotropic medication taken between W2 and W3). With medication status and non-school treatments as outcomes, we did not covary medication status. With W3 externalizing variables as outcomes, we did not covary comorbid ODD/CD. With W3 internalizing variables as outcomes, we did not covary comorbid depression/dysthymia or anxiety. With W3 achievement variables as outcomes, we did not covary W1 reading disorder.
