a

Cell values are percentages; slight deviations of the sum of percentages for a particular age group in a single row from 100 are due to rounding.

b

One additional participant (aged 6 mos.) was excluded because s/he was too young to be evaluated for most of these characteristics. S/he was described as having “global developmental delay.”

c

For intellectual ability/disability, language ability/disability, and adaptive behavior, a child was included in this category if at least one standard score from an appropriate assessment was provided. For anxiety, attention problems, and aggression/oppositional behavior, a child was included in this category if at least one T-score from an appropriate assessment (in all cases, a standardized questionnaire completed by a parent or a teacher) was provided or the authors indicated that the child’s classification as demonstrating/not demonstrating this characteristic was based on his/her T-score from such an assessment. For autism spectrum disorder, a child was included in this category if s/he completed the Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule [Lord et al., 1999] or Autism Diagnostic Observation Schedule-2 [Lord et al., 2012] and/or a parent completed the Autism Diagnostic Interview – Revised [Lord et al., 1994] (11 of the 12 children) or if a parent or teacher completed a standardized questionnaire for autistic symptoms (1 child).
