Odds ratio for treatment preference represents the odds of remission with “no preference” (N=106) as the baseline rate (odds ratio=1).
Odds ratio for preference matching is the odds of remission with “mismatched to preference” (N=104) as the baseline rate (odds ratio=1); all odds ratios for remission are calculated from weighted data accounting for the 2:1 medication to the cognitive-behavioral therapy allocation ratio.
