The DSM-IV columns (including 80% CI) display results of the comparison between those diagnosed only with very young children criteria and those diagnosed with DSM-IV. The Undiagnosed columns (including d) display results of the comparison between those diagnosed only with very young children criteria and those who were undiagnosed. Bold p-values indicate significance after Bonferroni correction. Bold CIs contain 0.
