Table 1.

Frequencies of participants split by role which met psychological measures thresholds; logistic regressions carried out on each psychological measure threshold to examine effect of role are presented

N (% of sample) Role
Counts Logistic regression
95% CI for odds ratio
Doctor (% of sample) Nurse (% of sample) Other (% of sample) B (SE) Lower Upper Odds ratio
Good well-being 417 (59) 185 (64) 186 (54) 46 (62) 0.39* (0.16) 1.08 2.04 1.48
Probable PTSD 280 (40) 92 (32) 168 (49) 20 (27) −0.73* (0.16) 0.35 0.67 0.48
Problem drinking 51 (7) 20 (7) 28 (8) 3 (4) −0.18 (0.30) 0.46 1.51 0.83

AMD 322 (45.4%)

AMD, any mental disorder (consisting of at least one of the following: severe depression, severe anxiety, probable PTSD or problem drinking. Good well-being is indicative of a score of ≥43 on WEMWBS; moderate depression equates to a score of ≥10; and severe depression equates to a score of ≥20 on the PHQ-9; probable PTSD equates to a score of ≥15 on PCL-6; moderate anxiety equates to a score of ≥11; and severe depression equates to a score of ≥16 on the GAD-7; problem drinking equates to a score of ≥8 on AUDIT-C. The negative beta coefficient and odds ratio of less than 1 is due to coding of the role predictor with nurses as the reference category (thus doctors = 1, nurses = 0).
