NOTE: From a model predicting treatment from all variables in a domain, plus baseline characteristics; reporting the Wald test of joint significance and associated p-value for whether the group of variables in each domain significantly predict treatment.

a

Each mediator domain included the group of variables detailed in Table 1.

b

We also tested a model adding generalized anxiety disorder; treatment significantly changed this group of mediators for the total sample (χ2 = 8.17, p = 0.04), boys (χ2 = 9.40, p = 0.02), and girls (χ2 = 9.80, p = 0.02).
