Abbreviations: SD=standard deviation. t=unpaired t-test. df=degrees of freedom (these vary because of missing data. They are corrected to lower fractional values by the Levene test if variances are significantly unequal.) p=two-tailed probability. PSWQ=Penn State Worry Questionnaire. PSS10=Perceived Stress Scale, 10 item version. BDIsv=Beck Depression Inventory Short Version. PSQI=Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (higher scores indicate worse sleep.). LSAS-F= Liebowitz Social Anxiety Scale-Fear. ASI=Anxiety Sensitivity Inventory. The time frames for the PSS10, BDI, and LSAS-F are the past week, and for the PSQI, the past 4 weeks. The PSWQ and ASI ask how typical the statements are for the person.
