The prevalence ratios in the cells represents abbreviated outputs from a series of modified Poisson regression models with oppositional defiant disorder as the dependent variable and screen time as the independent variable. Thus, the table represents the outputs from fourteen modified Poisson regression models in total. Estimates for the confounders are shown in the Supporting Information. The prevalence ratio is reported for each hour per day of screen time. Bold indicates p<0.05
