Note. T1 NSSI = Time 1 Last-Year NSSI Frequency; T2 = Time 2 NSSI Presence; T1 Dep = Time 1 Beck Depression
Inventory; T2 = Time 2 Beck Depression Inventory; T2 WB = T2 Internal State Scale - Well-Being Subscale. ANCOVAs and post-hoc analyses were used to compare classes on our outcome measures: depressive symptoms, NSSI frequency measured at baseline, and well-being measured at follow-up. Multinomial logistic regression was used to determine whether there was a significant main effect of classes on engagement in NSSI over the follow-up period; Binary logistic regressions were used to conduct post-hoc analyses.
Results for post-hoc analyses; classes with the same subscript did not significantly differ.
