Hazard ratios for any mental disorder, substance misuse disorders, personality disorders, broadly defined schizophrenia, mood disorders, anxiety/somatoform disorders by parental income scale during childhood. The parental income scale represents relative parental income levels and their duration between birth and 15th birthday. A minimum score of 4 represents parental income being in the lowest level across all four age points. A maximum score of 20—the reference category for HRs estimation (HR = 1)—represents parental income being consistently in the highest quintile 5. Basic adjustment—hazard ratios adjusted for gender, birth year and calendar time. Additional adjustment—hazard ratios adjusted for gender, birth year, calendar time, parental mental disorders, parental educational attainment level, degree of urbanicity at birth and number of changes in child-parental separation status between birth and 15th birthday
