Reproduced with permission from Kessler et al. (2003). Entries in the % columns are unadjusted prevalences of the NCS-2 outcomes in subsamples defined by baseline 12-month NCS disorder severity. Entries in the OR and (95% CI) columns are odds ratios and design-corrected 95 percent confidence intervals obtained by exponentiating multiple logistic regression coefficients in equations that simultaneously included dummy variables for the baseline disorder severity categories and controls for age and sex to predict the NCS-2 outcomes.
