q3 · i? · causal · r2

Parent-report responder analysis on the same subsample using the RCI/CADS criteria; four intervention and two control children lacked parent-reported CADS data at postintervention. The article reports "OR[95% CI] 5 8.7[2.0, 37.4]". No standardized effect size (d, g, r) is printed for this contrast.

"Overall, 16 children (62%) in the intervention condition responded or im proved based on parent report, whereas only four children (21%) in the control condition responded or improved ( χ2 5 9.29, p 5 .002, OR[95% CI] 5 8.7[2.0, 37.4])."
