Note. Estimates are odds ratios for the latent CES-D depressive symptom trajectory classes and major depressive episodes. 95% confidence intervals are in brackets. Odds ratios and confidence intervals are reported for each coping measure tested in a separate model. Bold values indicate effects that were significant in a multivariate model that simultaneously included the approach and avoidance composites intercepts and slopes. MDE = major depressive episode. The depressive symptom trajectory classes were estimated in a single, multinomial logistic regression model. The MDE model was estimated separately as a binary logistic regression model. All models adjusted for: age, Latina versus nonLatina, marital status (married/living as married versus not), income, employment (employed, retired, unemployed), subjective socioeconomic status, cancer stage, assessment interval (1–7) at which major oncologic treatments (surgery, chemotherapy, radiation) ended, number of comorbidities, recruitment site (California, Arizona), ever received chemotherapy, ever received radiation therapy, ever received surgery, and ever received aromatase inhibitors or endocrine antagonists.

^aDue to low variability, results for the avoidance composite slope are presented for a 0.1 unit change, rather than the typical 1.0 unit change used for all others.
