  1. Notes: (a) Estimation is done with the assumption that screening below cut-off in Wave 5 can be interpreted as no diagnosis, and that those selected for but lost to interview have the same distribution as those interviewed. (b) Prevalence adjusted for different sample size of genders (mean of girls’ and boys’ prevalence). (c) Opioids, ecstasy, cocaine, central stimulants, sedatives/anxiolytics, volatile solvents, hallucinogens and “other”. (d) Persons with at least one of the kinds
