In the paper, Prevalence of Major Depressive Disorder and Socio-demographic Correlates: Results of a Representative Household Epidemiological Survey in Beijing, China, by Liu, Yan, Ma, et al. (10.1016/j.jad.2015.03.009), originally published in the July issue of 2015 of the journal, we found a few errors after double checking with previous drafts. We would like to make the following corrections. Of note, the errors occurred in the process of formatting or data transfer, none of the findings and conclusions were affected by the errors.
In Table 1, the degree of education of the samples should read as follows:
| N | % | |
|---|---|---|
| Degree of education | ||
| Illiterate | 800 | 4.99 |
| Primary school | 1612 | 10.05 |
| Secondary school | 4078 | 25.44 |
| High school | 3841 | 23.96 |
| College and above | 5701 | 35.56 |
In addition, in the column of “Multivariate factor regression analysis” in Table 4, the P value for sex should be <0.001, the value 0.002 should be deleted; and no significance was found regarding relationships with others, therefore no results should have been included. The corrected sections read as below:
| Factor | Level | Multivariate factor regression analysis |
||
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Odds ratio | 95% CI | P value | ||
| Sex | Male | |||
| Female | 1.972 | 1.433–2.713 | <0.001 | |
| Relationships with others | ||||
| Good | ||||
| Average | ||||
| Poor | ||||
