Comparison of global functioning variables for cluster B, cluster C and cluster B and C PDs (N = 91).
| Cluster B (N = 30) |
Cluster C (N = 40) |
Cluster B and C (N = 24) | Overall p-Value a |
|
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Having a relationship % (biographic questionnaire) |
27% b | 56% b | 41% | 0.042 |
| Number of friends mean (SD) (biographic questionnaire) |
6.3 (7.7) | 7.2 (6.9) c | 3.8 (3.7) c | 0.041 |
| Paid job % (biographic questionnaire) |
35% | 35% | 27% | 0.843 |
| Social functioning mean (SD) (SF-36) |
46.7 (30.6) | 41.1 (25.8) | 31.5 (22.9) | 0.129 |
| Emotional role functioning mean (SD) (SF-36) |
34.4 (39.6) | 25.4 (33.3) | 25.4 (33.2) | 0.572 |
Note. Due to missing values, total N varies between 87 and 91. SF-36 = Short Form (36) Health Survey; with lower scores indicating more limitations, a based on Welch test for ANOVA (for continuous variables) or Fisher’s exact test (for dichotomous variables). b,c Post hoc analyses to communicate significant differences (after Bonferroni correction) in global functioning between two groups of patients in univariate analysis, using Bonferroni corrected significance level of 0.05/3 = 0.0167.
