PHQ: Patient Health Questionnaire; CI: confidence interval.

Coefficients from the linear probability model (LPM) were reported. Similar results were obtained from maximum likelihood estimation. The table shows seven different specifications with the gradual addition of control variables (referred to as other associated factors). The last specification includes month of visit dummies representing dummies for 11 out of 12 months of the year with the remaining month left as a reference category. Significance represented through stars corresponds to unadjusted p-values. For the main independent variable, we report both the unadjusted p-values (in brackets) and the design effects adjusted confidence intervals (90% CI) (in parentheses). For the other associated factors, we report the estimates along with the standard errors (in parentheses).
