Clinical measures for individuals with and without sudden gains (n = 63)

Pre-treatment Post-treatment Follow-up 1
(M=3.4 months)
Follow-up 2
(M=12.1 months)
Total sample (N=63)
 CPSS 24.8 (9.4) 7.1 (7.3) 5.5 (6.8) 5.4 (6.4)
 Converted BDIa 15.3 (8.6) 6.8 (7.3) 5.3 (6.5) 5.6 (7.1)
Individuals with sudden gains
(N=31)
 CPSS 25.7 (9.0) 3.9 (4.0) 2.5 (3.0) 3.5 (4.3)
 Converted BDIa 15.9 (8.3) 4.3 (5.2) 3.4 (4.9) 4.4 (6.0)
Individuals without sudden gains
(N=32)
 CPSS 23.9 (9.7) 10.2 (8.4) 8.4 (8.0) 7.2 (7.6)

Note. The last-observation-carried-forward (LOCF) technique was used to impute missing values in follow-up measurements; CPSS = Child posttraumatic stress disorder symptom scale; BDI = Beck depression inventory.

To facilitate comparison we converted CDI scores into BDI scores. First, we divided CDI scores by the total possible score (54) and turned them into percentages. Second, we multiplied these percentages by the total BDI score (63) to assign a converted BDI score.
