Note: Values are pooled estimates of mean and standard error across all imputation sets. N is estimated after imputation. For race, the ABCD variable codes were combined as follows: White Non-Hispanic utilized the White category, excluding anyone that met the Hispanic/Latinx ethnic variable; Asian included Asian Indian, Chinese, Filipino, Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese, and Other Asian; Native Hawaiian/Pacific Islander included Native Hawaiian, Guamanian, Samoan, and Other Pacific Islander. Matrix reasoning is the scaled score. ABCD=Adolescent Brain Cognitive Development Study. ADHD=Attention-Deficit/Hyperactivity Disorder. CBCL=Child Behavior Checklist. PRS=Polygenic Risk Score. WISC-V=Wechsler Intelligence Scale for Children. See text for methods and definitions.
