Journal of Applied Research in Intellectual Disabilities, 34, 1108–1117. https://doi.org/10.1111/jar.12866 In Table 3 of the “Results” section, authors' calculation of the T-statistic was incorrect. These T-statistics have been recalculated with updates to the p values shown in grey (Corrected Table 3). Corrected Table 3: T-scores of Global Health in Down syndrome (DS) on 4 measures in comparison to standard score in general population.

Due to this calculation error, in authors' manuscript, the reporting of results related to Table 3 in the following sections should be corrected. In the Abstract, the Results section should state that “Global health T-scores did differ from the available comparative standardized scores from PROMIS® reference population on some measures (p < 0.05).” In the Results section, the final sentences in the “Complete Surveys” paragraph should state that “Scores on some the three global health instruments, as reported by parents, children and adolescents, and adults with DS, did differ from the PROMIS® reference population mean (p < 0.05 on Global Health Scale (Mental) reported by adults with DS, p < 0.01 for Parent Proxy Global Health 7 + 2 reported by all parents, and by the cohort of parents of adults with DS).” In the Discussion section, the second paragraph should read “We learned that the PROMIS® global health instruments can be completed by some individuals with DS in clinic. We benchmarked responses from individuals with DS and their caregivers against the PROMIS® reference population. Our pilot results suggest that scores from people with DS on these measures might differ from those of the PROMIS® reference population in regard to mental health (p < 0.05), but not in regard to their physical health. Global health scores for individuals with DS, as reported by their parents, did differ from the PROMIS® reference population mean, both among all parents and in parents of adults with DS (p < 0.01). Mean T-scores fell within −0.5 to +0.25 SD, which is to say that survey respondents report health that ranges from feeling 0.5 SD less healthy than the United States general population to feeling 0.25 SD more healthy than the United States general population. DS has a unique profile of medical and developmental concerns; there are also some diseases in those without DS, which are less common in individuals with DS, such as solid tumors (Hasle et al., 2016).” REFERENCE Hasle, H., Friedman, J.
