Significant at the 0.05 level, two-tailed test.
Bivariate models: each mental disorder type was estimated as a predictor of the physical condition onset in a separate discrete time survival model controlling for age cohorts, gender, person-year and country.
Multivariate Type model: the model was estimated with dummy variables for all mental disorders entered simultaneously, including the controls specified above.
Multivariate Number model: the model was estimated with dummy predictors for number of mental disorders without any information about type of mental disorders, including the controls specified above.
