aAdjusted for age, sex, ethnicity, level of education, and marital status.

bAdjusted β, standardized regression coefficients (continuous independent variables were standardized [mean 0, SD 1] for interpreting significant three-way interaction terms and examining the difference in associations between high [mean + 1 SD], average [mean], and low [mean − 1 SD] levels of childhood trauma within and across groups [patients, relatives, and controls]).

cFamily-wise error-corrected P values were computed by multiplying the unadjusted P value by the total number of tests to adjust significance levels of Wald tests for three-way interactions.
