Data are OR and 95% CI. Abbreviations: CI, confidence interval; OR, odds ratio; rTHQ, recent THQ; TBI, traumatic brain injury; THQ, Trauma History Questionnaire.

*Adjusted for all time-invariant, time-varying factors, and covariates included. Random effects (standard deviation): subject (1.71), time point (0.22).

†Linear effects of THQ scores for number of traumatic events by age 18. Quadratic effects were not significant (p > 0.10).

‡Linear effects of rTHQ scores for the number of traumatic events (0, 1, or ≥2) in the month concurrent with the assessment visit are reported. Quadratic effects were not significant (p > 0.10).
