Adjusted odds ratios (AOR) estimated in discrete time survival models with adjustment for age and sex. Each disorder category was examined in a separate model. Models for categories other than ‘Any depressive or anxiety disorder’ included a time-varying indicator for prior onset of disorders not included in the category being examined. Birth cohorts are defined by age at interview. Figures in bold are statistically significant at the p=0.05 level.
