μ, median of posterior distribution of μ; σ, median of posterior distribution of σ; δ, median of posterior distribution of δ; HDIμ, 95% Highest Density Interval for μ with LL, lower limit and UL, upper limit; HDIδ, 95% Highest Density Interval for δ with LL, lower limit and UL, upper limit; % of δ > 0, percentage of the posterior distribution that is greater than the comparison value 0, i.e., no increase/decrease; % of δ < ROPE, percentage of the posterior distribution less than the lower limit; % of δ in ROPE, percentage of the posterior distribution in the interval; % of δ > ROPE, percentage of the posterior distribution higher than the upper limit. GAD, generalized anxiety disorder; PA, panic disorder and agoraphobia; IA, illness anxiety; SAD, social anxiety disorder; DP, depression; OCD, obsessive–compulsive disorder; BDD, body dysmorphic disorder ED, eating disorders; SP, schizophrenia spectrum and other psychotic disorders; other, other non-specified mental disorder; HC, healthy controls; Contrast MD vs. HC, contrast between all participants with a mental disorder (=MD; includes all groups with mental disorders from GAD to other) and healthy controls.
