Model 1 includes variables that reflect age and educational background. Model 2 includes in addition parental family history of depression. Model 3 includes in addition parent–child relationship, childhood physical abuse (CPA) and childhood emotional neglect CEN).

a The results from a linear regression model with age of onset of MD as response and with ‘any CSA’ as predictor.

b The results from a Poisson regression model with numbers of episodes of MD as response and with ‘any CSA’ as predictor.

c The results from a Poisson regression model with duration of the longest episodes of MD as response and ‘any CSA’ as predictor.
