  1. Notes: (a) Estimation is done with the assumption that screening below cut-off in Wave 5 can be interpreted as no problem or risky behaviour, and that those selected for but lost to interview have the same distribution of risk and problem behaviours as those selected and interviewed. (b) Those not screened in Cohort A (166 women, 114 men), due to not being interviewed with ADDIS or M.I.N.I., were assumed to have the same distribution as those in Cohort B who also were not interviewed with ADDIS or M.I.N.I. Prevalence therefore depends on the findings per cohort, which means prevalence figures are not directly related to the total number of observed cases. (c) Prevalence adjusted for different sample size of genders (mean of girls’ and boys’ prevalence)
