aThe depression program consisted of 8 modules, whereas the panic disorder and social anxiety program comprised 9 modules. *Independent samples t-test between patients who did and did not respond to the post-treatment open-ended evaluation questions. #p-value from Pearson’s chi-square test comparing the overall distribution between patients who did and did not respond to the post-treatment open-ended evaluation questions.
