t-tests evaluated differences in BASC-2 and SRS-2 composite T scores between female and male children. EXT = externalizing, INT = internalizing, and ADS = adaptive skills. Clinically relevant T scores are considered to be those above 60 for all scores except for adaptive skills, for which clinically relevant scores would be below 40.
