Table 6. Meta-Analysis of QIDS-SR16 scores across three studies.

N = number of participants; D = raw difference in means; d = standardized difference in means or Cohen’s d; g = standardized difference in means or Hedgen’s d; Vd = variance of d; Vg = variance of g; Y = effect size; VY = variance within; W = weight; WY = calculated quantity weight of effect size; WY2 = calculated quantity weight of effect size squared; W2 = weight squared; QIDS-SR16 = Quick Inventory of Depressive Symptomatology 16-Item Self Report
