P values were >.05 for comparisons of change between treatment groups.

VABS-II Subdomain scores were transformed to correspond to a scale with mean 100 and SD 15.

^aThe n’s vary because of age differences and missing data. Domestic, community, and coping skills subdomains are not administered to children <1 y of age. Written subdomain is not administered to children <3 y of age. Score for baseline coping and for baseline personal functioning were each missing for 1 subject. Scores for baseline gross motor functioning scores were missing for 4 subjects. Scores for baseline fine motors skills were also missing for 4 subjects.

^bP < .001 for all comparisons of baseline and follow-up scores except where noted.

^cP = .003 for comparison of baseline and follow-up scores.
