  1. Abbreviations: SE standard error, SD standard deviation, ADHD attention-deficit/hyperactivity disorder
  2. aEstimates based on weighted Part II sample data. Total DOR are defined as the sum of (1) full days and (2) partial days divided by 2.
  3. bThe prevalence estimate is lower than in previous SNMHS reports (Al-Habeeb et al., 2020; Altwaijri et al., 2020a) because we focus here only on the 10 most common mental disorders in the SNMHS.
