	High/Stable (n=80)	Low/Stable (n=40)	Low/Post-Birth Decrease (n= 54)	Low/Post-Birth Increase (n= 26)
Means Estimates of Growth

(SD)	(0.56)	(0.32)	(0.29)	(0.31)
Mean - Time 2	1.30_a	0.63_c	0.19_b	0.93_c

Note. Means within the same row which do not share a subscript differ at the p < .05 level. A conservative cutoff for clinical symptoms is 1.2 and a liberal cutoff for clinical symptoms is .80 (Le et al., 2004).
