The chi-square test for binary variables and the Mantel–Haenszel chi-square test for variables with > 3 stratification levels. Multiple comparisons controlled by false discovery rate (FDR) adjustment, raw p < 0.05 that were equal or more extreme than FDR adjusted p-value were deemed significant.
Other mental illnesses include post-traumatic stress disorder (n = 10), bipolar disorders (n = 8), eating disorders (n = 3), phobia (n = 2), panic disorder (n = 1), and obsessive-compulsive disorder (n = 1).
p < 0.001.
