aP value was calculated by using a paired t test.
bThe kappa statistic, sensitivity, and specificity were evaluated using a cutoff point of 3 for the 2-item Patient Health Questionnaire and 2-item Generalized Anxiety Disorder scale, 8 for the 8-item Patient Health Questionnaire, and 12 for the Sheehan Disability Scale.
