Center for Epidemiologic Studies – Depression Scale (CES-D); Perceived Stress Scale - 10 (PSS-10). Results are odds ratios with 95% confidence intervals and p-values based upon multiple logistic regression examining depressed mood and stress as independent variables and mood and weight changes as dependent variables.

Regression results for overall reported mood and weight changes (yes/no) noted under depressed mood and stress. Significant covariates included in all final regression models are education, BMI, randomization. P-value considered significant at alpha <0.05.
