Frequencies of Anxiety and Unipolar Depressive Disorders

a) First onsets across time points (cases censored for Cox regression; N = 132)

Year 1 Year 2 Year 3 Year 4
Anxiety 4 (3.0%) 5 (3.8%) 4 (3.0%) 3 (2.3%)
M = 1 M = 2 M = 2 M = 2
Depression 11 (8.3%) 9 (6.8%) 8 (6.0%) 6 (4.5%) M = 1
M = 4 M = 4 M = 1 M = 1
b) Number in sample (including censored cases)
Panic disorder 4
Social phobia 5
Specific phobia 1
Obsessive compulsive disorder 3
Generalized anxiety disorder 1
*Anxiety disorder NOS 2
Major depressive disorder 20
Dysthymia 1
Adjustment disorder 6
**Unipolar depression NOS 7

Note. a) Year 0 (baseline) assessment not included in longitudinal analyses. Anxiety = anxiety disorder diagnosis; depression = unipolar depressive disorder diagnosis; M = males; NOS = not otherwise specified. This table reports the number of cases counted in Cox regression at each time point (i.e., after censoring cases). Cases were censored from subsequent time points once an onset occurred.

b)

*

One anxiety disorder NOS case had posttraumatic stress disorder symptoms, with insufficient symptoms for criteria C and D to reach threshold for a diagnosis. The other anxiety disorder NOS case had panic disorder symptoms and did not meet criteria for the disorder due to having limited symptom panic attacks (i.e., three, instead of four, panic attack symptoms) and not fully meeting criterion A(2).

**

Among the unipolar depressive disorder NOS cases, five had major depressive disorder symptoms and two had minor depressive disorder symptoms. In all but one case, participants met for depressed mood and had one to three additional symptoms; in one case, the participants did not fully meet for depressed mood and/or anhedonia (both symptoms scored as subthreshold); and in two cases, symptoms only lasted for 1 week. There were only two participants with onsets of an anxiety disorder and unipolar depression in the same year.
