  1. Based on the reported mean and SD effect sizes Cohen’s d [CI95] was calculated to assess differences between both clusters with healthy and clinical comparison samples. For comparison with previous research, we report here the mean total score instead of the sum. HC = healthy controls, AD = Adjustment Disorder; MDD‐SE = Major depressive disorder, single episode; MDD‐RE = Major depressive disorder, recurrent episode; M = mean; SD = standard deviation.
