Note. The Stage 1 model for each outcome included the three demographic variables (gender, race/ethnicity, parental education) only. Stage 2 represents a series of four models for each outcome, in which the statistical effect of each of the four predictors on the outcome is evaluated in turn, while adjusting for demographics. The Stage 3 model for each outcome reflects the best-fitting combination of predictor variables for that outcome, while adjusting for demographics and other predictors in that model (if any). For all predictor variables shown, higher scores indicate higher levels of problems or symptoms. BIC=Bayesian information criterion
