Design effects are the squares of the ratios of the standard errors of design-based estimates and estimates based on the assumption of simple random sampling. See the text for a more detailed discussion of the substantive interpretation of design effects.

b

The five DSM-IV/CIDI disorder clusters considered in each of three time frames (30-day prevalence, 12-month prevalence, and lifetime prevalence) are any anxiety disorder, any mood disorder, any impulse-control disorder, any substance disorder, and any disorder.

c

Associations were estimated in logistic regression equations that used information about respondent age, sex, and race-ethnicity (Non-Hispanic White versus all others) to predict each of the five outcomes in each of the three time frames.
