a

For each variable range listed, higher numbers indicate higher value of the specified variable (ie, higher number for happy means more happiness).

b

Features were selected for further inclusion in the mixed-effects CART models.

c

Coping reflects the sum of 3 coping types: reframe, talk, and distract.
