Reported data are statistical results of the interaction between diagnosis (remitted, nonremitted, or nondepressed) and study time, examining Z-transformed cognitive domain scores as the dependent variable. Models controlled for age, sex, race, education, and baseline domain score. Degrees of freedom for F statistics displayed as 2 (for the three groups), model error. T values determined from group comparisons within the models. ES = effect size
