Table 15.3. The distribution of severity of 12-month DSM-IV disorders in the baseline NCS (1990–92) and the NCS-R (2001–03) among respondents in the age range 18–541
  Serious   Moderate   Mild   None   Any

1The retrospective classification of NCS data using DSM-IV criteria was based on multiple imputation (MI). See the text for a discussion. Standard errors are based on MI adjustments of design-based estimates. The association between time and severity in the total sample is χ23 = 2.7, p = .435.

Risk ratios were calculated by dividing NCS-R prevalence by NCS prevalence. As this was done using MI, the estimates reported here are the averages of the ratios across the MI replicates. These do not necessarily equal the ratio of the average prevalence estimates across replicates. This is why the slight discrepancies exist between the RR estimates and the values one would obtain by calculating the ratios of the prevalence estimates.
