Note. Scores transformed. Standard deviations in parentheses. RAB = Risk Assessment Battery. HAART = highly active antiretroviral therapy. AmNART = North American Adult Reading Test. WRAT = Wide Range Achievement Test. DSM–IV = Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders–Fourth Edition. Hx. = history; dx. = diagnosis.

^*p < .10, was entered into backward stepwise regression to produce final set of covariates.
