Note: Depressive and anxiety symptom trajectory classes were assessed from baseline to Year 11 on study. Bolded estimates and their respective 95 % confidence intervals indicate that the 95 % confidence intervals did not overlap with 1. Multivariable multinomial logistic models were adjusted by baseline demographic characteristics (age, sex [female vs male], race [black vs. white], marital status [married vs. not], postsecondary education [attained vs. not]), current smoking status, history of Type II diabetes and hypertension, body mass index (BMI), and social support. Low perceived social support is defined by the following: (i) dissatisfaction defined as the lower 10th percentile of the sample distribution on both questions (score < 6), (ii) low social contact defined as one time per week/less than once per week for friends and/or relatives, and (iii) low emotional support defined as needing more emotional support.
