Correlations involving categorical or ordinal variables are polychoric or polyserial, given evidence that a continuous latent dimension underlies the diagnostic constructs assessed in this study. Correlations greater than |.07| are significant at the .05 level (uncorrected). For gender, 0 = female, 1 = male.
