a SD Standard deviation

b BCR/CR Percentage of scores in borderline clinical range/clinical range

c ES effect size (Cohen’s d); Significance compared to normative sample ** p < .01; *** p < .001

d T scores (population mean = 50; SD = 10; higher scores reflect more problems)

eIQ scores (population mean = 100; SD = 15; higher scores reflect better performance)

fM-ABC normal score >P15; borderline score P5 to <P15; clinical score <P5)

gStandard-scores (population mean = 10; SD = 3; higher scores reflect better performance)
