Notes. CBCL = Child Behavior Checklist, IAB = Interview for Antisocial Behavior, CGAS = Child Global Assessment Scale, RDI = Research Diagnostic Interview, BDI = Beck Depression Inventory, PSI = Parenting Stress Index, FES = Family Environment Scale. Improvements in most functioning measures are based on reduction of scores (e.g., lower symptoms). However improvements on the CGAS and FES reflect an increase in scores (e.g., improved functioning, improved relationships). The signs of the t tests for these two measures were reversed so that all tests in the table reflect improvement. The dfs for all analyses were 1,58, with two exceptions (1,52; 1,57 where complete data were not available for the measures).
