Trajectory classes for long-term depressive and anxiety symptoms.

Note: Pr(Having Symptoms) means prevalence for having either depressive or anxious symptoms at the timepoints on the x-axis. Mod means moderately. Anxiety symptoms were defined as the presence of anxiety symptoms in the previous week through the Hopkins Symptom Checklist. The anxiety threshold was defined as present if participants rated any symptom occurring at least “quite a bit” or any two symptoms occurring at least “a little”. Presence of clinically relevant depressive symptoms was defined as the cut-off score ≥ 8 on the 10-item Center for Epidemiologic Studies – Depression Scale.
