*Cut-offs refer to total scores at baseline and their ability to identify those currently reporting self-harm or doing so 6 and 12 months later. Data shown for two points around the suggested baseline cut-off point for girls (≥12) and boys (≥9). Sens, Sensitivity, Spec, Specificity, Corr class, Correctly classified.
