^a The models were estimated in the Part II sample. The model for any treatment was estimated among respondents with one or more 12‐month disorders controlling for severity of disorders and 13 dummy variables for the individual types of disorders. The model for treatment adequacy was estimated in the subsample of respondents with any treatment controlling for number of treatment sectors in which treatment was received, severity of disorder, and five dummy variables for the broad disorder classes. The latter was necessary because the sample was too small to allow coefficients to be estimated for the individual disorders.

^bVariables defined at the age of interview.

^*Significant at the .05 level, two‐sided test.
