Neural Rhythms of Change: Long-Term Improvement after Successful Treatment in Children with Disruptive Behavior Problems

Table 2

CBCL and behavioral performance data (mean and standard deviations) during the Go/No-go task before treatment, after treatment, and for follow-up, broken down for when groups were divided on changes in externalizing or internalizing symptoms. NIMPs: nonimprovers; IMPs: improvers. Statistical differences between long-term improvers (IMPs) and nonimprovers (NIMPs) were tested at each time point using -tests.
