NOTES. Means and standard deviations of scale scores are presented for illustrative purposes. Effect sizes (Cohen’s d) were adjusted for dependence between means. A negative effect size indicates that means at follow-up were lower than at baseline. Generalized estimating equation (GEE) techniques were used to examine differences on measures of quality of life, depression, social support, coping, and recovery capital from baseline to the 3-month follow-up interview. Separate interaction models were run to test the differential effects of time by house type. There was no evidence for a differential effect of time by house type, so these results were not listed (available from corresponding author).
