Editor's Notes
We obtained diagnostic data on all 721 participating teens through the Computerized Diagnostic Interview for Children which was self-administered to both parents and adolescents on a laptop computer. Diagnostically we found that about a 1/3 of the sample reported a mood disorder and about 50% reported an externalizing disorder. 85% of the sample met criteria for any disorder And _ had a comorbid diagnosis.
