The dependent variable is DSM-IV diagnoses; the regression for anxiety adjusts for the covariates in Table 1 (i.e. age, race, attending school, poverty index ratio and lives with smokers) and depression disorder; the regression for depression disorder adjusts for covariates and anxiety; the regression for either disorder only adjusts for Table 1 covariates;
