Note. ΔR2 is the proportion of variance in the dependent variable explained by contrasts between local normative comparison group (LNCG), attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) desistence and ADHD persistence after controlling for participant age. The Nagelkerke R2 is reported. “Other SUD” (where SUD is substance use disorder) includes such substances as cocaine and hallucinogens; “Any SUD” includes alcohol use disorder (AUD), marijuana use disorder (MUD), and Other SUD.

a

Betas presented in absolute value format.

b

Effect sizes are odds ratios.

c

Indicates that the contrast is statistically non-significant after applying the Benjamini-Hockberg false discovery rate (FDR) correction for multiple comparisons.

d

Indicates contrast is statistically significant after applying the Benjamini-Hockberg FDR correction for multiple comparisons.
