Notes:

1

Predictions are derived by applying the multinomial logit coefficients from Model 2 (including physician dummies) to the hypothetical patients.

2

Statistics are computed across the 30 physicians with 20 or more patients.

3

AD denotes antidepressant, AP is antipsychotic, MS is mood stabilizer.
