Table 1: Depression randomized clinical trial:

Description of the p = 9 baseline covariates (means and SDs); the estimated values (“Indiv. Value”) of treatment decision rules from each individual covariate, using either the B-spline regression (“Nonpar.”, in the third column) or the linear regression (“Linear”, in the fourth column); the estimated single-index coefficients (in the last three columns), and the values of the associated treatment decision rules from the three methods (in the bottom row).
