  1. The table shows ES > 0,2. Where there are 3 categories, the first box indicates the EFFECT SIZE between the first and second categories; the second is that between the second and third categories, and the third box that between the first and the third categories. Higher scores in the CHIP-AE domains mean better health: high Satisfaction, better Resilience and academic achievement, and less Discomfort and Risks
