General Cognitive Ability Score(Differential Ability Scales, Second Edition-DAS-II) |
Differential Ability Scales-II General Conceptual Ability assessment is a measure of general cognitive ability and is used to assess and identify children's cognitive strengths and weaknesses. The general cognitive ability score has a range from 30 to 170 (mean=100; SD=15). A low score indicates poor performance, and a high score indicates best performance. |

Executive Function (NIH Toolbox) |
The NIH Toolbox Cognition Battery is a multi-dimensional set of brief measures assessing cognitive function. The Flanker, Dimensional Card Sort, and Pattern Comparison subtests measure executive function, processing speed, and attention. Standard scores have a range from 30 to 170 (mean=100; SD=15). A low score indicates poor performance, and a high score indicates best performance.. |

Grooved Pegboard Task |
The Grooved Pegboard task measures eye-hand coordination and motor speed by requiring children to insert pegs into a board. The score is the time to place the pegs. If the child reaches the time limit of 3 minutes, then the score is the number of pegs placed. A faster time and lower number of pegs dropped is indicative of better performance. |

Anthropometrics-Body Composition (height) |
To assess children's body composition, height (in centimeters) is measured. This is converted to a z score for age and sex based on Child Growth Standards from the World Health Organization. The z score indicates the number of standard deviations away from the mean. A z score of 0 is equal to the mean of a reference population (children the same age and sex). Values less than 0 indicate values lower than the reference population, while values greater than 0 indicate values higher than the reference population. |

Anthropometrics-Body Composition (weight) |
To assess children's body composition, weight (in kilograms) is measured. This is converted to a z score for age and sex based on Child Growth Standards from the World Health Organization. The z score indicates the number of standard deviations away from the mean. A z score of 0 is equal to the mean of a reference population (children the same age and sex). Values less than 0 indicate values lower than the reference population, while values greater than 0 indicate values higher than the reference population. |

Anthropometrics-Adiposity |
To assess children's adiposity, a bioelectric impedance is used to measure body fat percent. Child's height and weight will be combined to report BMI (kg/m^2). These measurements are converted to a z score for age and sex based on Child Growth Standards from the World Health Organization. The z score indicates the number of standard deviations away from the mean. A z score of 0 is equal to the mean of a reference population (children the same age and sex). Values less than 0 indicate values lower than the reference population, while values greater than 0 indicate values higher than the reference population. |

Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function, 2nd edition (BRIEF-2) |
The Behavior Rating Inventory of Executive Function, 2nd ed., is completed by the child's caregiver and teacher to measure a range of executive functioning capabilities in children. The BRIEF-2 yields nine clinical scales that measure various aspects of executive function plus three broad indices: behavioral regulation, emotion regulation, and cognitive regulation. Scores are summed to obtain a Global Executive Composite Score that will be expressed as a t score (range= [35-90]; (mean=50; SD=10), where a higher score indicates greater dysregulation . |

Select subscales from the Teacher Report Form 6-18 |
The Teacher Report Form (syndrome and DSM-Oriented subscales) is completed by the child's teacher to reflect on the child's behavior in the previous six months. Scores are summed to provide a total problems score. Scores are also computed to measure the following subscales: internalizing problems, externalizing problems, anxious/depressed, withdrawn/depressed, somatic complaints, social problems, thought problems, attention problems, rule-breaking behavior, aggression behavior, affective problems, anxiety problems, somatic problems, attention deficit/hyperactivity problems, oppositional defiant problems, conduct problems. Scores will be expressed as a t-score (range= [33-100]; mean=50; SD=10), where a lower score indicates a more optimal outcome. |

Child Behavior Checklist 6-18 (CBCL) |
The Child Behavior Checklist is completed by the child' caregiver to reflect their child's behavior in the previous six months. Scores were summed to provide total competence and problem scores. Total competence scores will be expressed as a t-score (range= [20-100]; mean=50; SD=10), where a higher score reflects a more optimal outcome. Problem scores will be expressed as a t-score (range= [25,100]; mean=50; SD=10), where a lower score reflects a more optimal outcome. |

Emotion Regulation Checklist |
The Emotion Regulation Checklist is completed by the child's caregiver to measure child's ability to manage their emotions. Scores are grouped and summed to yield two scales: Emotion Regulation (range=10-40) and Lability/Negativity (range=14-56). Higher scores on the Emotion Regulation scale indicates more ability to regulate, whereas higher scores on the Lability/Negativity scale reflect greater dysregulation . |

Child Sleep Habits Questionnaire-abbreviated measure |
The Child Sleep Habits Questionnaire-abbreviated measures child sleep pattern and behaviors via parent report. Parents are asked to report on the child's bedtime behavior, sleep duration, and behavior during sleep. Scores are summed to give the total sleep disturbance score (range 33-99). Scores are also grouped and summed to yield eight subscales that measure different aspects of sleep. A higher score is indicative of more sleep problems . |
