Logistic regression models showing the associations between PASE score, patterns of PA, and depression (n = 2525)

	Model 1	Model 2	Model 3
Variable	OR (95% CI)	OR (95% CI)	OR (95% CI)
Standardized PASE score	0.77** (0.66–0.91)		0.78* (0.64–0.94)
Patterns of PA (Domestic types as reference)
Athletic types		0.27***(0.14–0.53)	0.35**(0.17–0.71)
Gardening/Caring types		1.25 (0.89–1.75)	1.55* (1.06–2.26)
Walkers		0.73 (0.53–1.01)	0.88 (0.62–1.24)

Notes: all models were adjusted for age, sex, education, income, living arrangements, self-rated health, and chronic disease. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001

Model 1: association between only PASE quantity and depression

Model 2: association between only patterns of PA and depression

Model 3: association between both PASE quantity, patterns of PA and depression
