Note. Questionnaire data were not available on controls. BASC/BASC-2 data are in T-scores. Conner’s Parent and Teacher Rating Scales were modified by Cohen (Cohen, 1988; Cohen & Hynd; 1986). AD denotes the attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder factor, and the raw scores are provided. The maximum raw score = 27.
