OR’s calculated with logistic regression with several outcomes. Crude model and model adjusted with gender, family structure and parental education when cohort members were 15–16, and parental psychiatric disorders until the end of 2018, has been built to examine associations between hierarchical hobby and psychiatric disorders. Participant can have a diagnosis from several diagnosis groups. Levels of social leisure activity are mutually exclusive

aReference category = Middle social leisure activity
