- Each row is a separate Linear regression with the SF-12 score as the dependent variable. The independent variables were: group (AS/HFA vs. control), parental age, and child's age. Parental differences in the SF-12 scores (Items 5 and 6) were calculated as following: Fathers' PCS-12 (MCS-12) minus Mothers' PCS-12 (MCS-12). Positive value indicates better health for the father.
