Psychometric properties of the ATDT scale
Patient Preference and Adherence 2012:6
Gabriel and Violato.17 Independent samples t-tests revealed significant differences between the Australian sample and the sample of depressed individuals from Canada for 18 items of the ATDT.
Sample text:```The validated Malay version of GAD-7 which was found to have good sensitivity and specificity was used in this study [27].```
Sample intent: background
Sample text:```While this method is known to be generally reliable, there are some questions about the representativeness of the data used [25].```
Sample intent: background



Sample text:```The literature describes substantial variation in dentists’ assessments of clinical, community, and behavioral factors that influence their decisions to provide a particular restorative treatment for their patients (21-23).```
Sample intent: method



Sample text:```For example, we have shown that a depressive mood state and poor quality of life are less likely in elderly individuals who meet empirical minimum standards of habitual physical activity: >4,000 steps/day or >5 min/day at an intensity ≥3 metabolic equivalents (METs; Yasunaga et al., 2006; Yoshiuchi et al., 2006).```
Sample intent: method



Sample text:```…posttraining and follow-up was moderate in size after self-study instruction (mean d = −0.57; Martino et al., 2011; Miller et al., 2004; Moyers et al., 2008; Sholomskas et al., 2005) and after didactic workshop training (mean d = −0.55; Baer et al., 2004; Miller et al., 2004; Moyers et al., 2008).```
Sample intent: method



Sample text:```The items are internally consistent and reproducible and the questionnaire may therefore be considered to have at least as favourable levels of reliability as clinical scores used to assess outcomes (Koran 1975).```
Sample intent: result
Sample text:```The results for veridical recall replicated previous results in the literature (Bal-
lardini et al., 2008; McDermott & Watson, 2001), with the average recall of studied words increas-
ing monotonically as SOA increased.```

Sample text:```The literature describes substantial variation in dentists’ assessments of clinical, community, and behavioral factors that influence their decisions to provide a particular restorative treatment for their patients (21-23).```
Sample intent: method



Sample text:```Consistent with our results, there was no significant association of 25(OH)D and mortality in a 3-year follow-up study of 230 Chinese patients with a median peritoneal dialysis duration of 26 months [7].```
Sample intent: result



Sample text:```The tests were as follows: the C-MMSE [13], the LMT [18], the RCFT [19], the Boston Naming Test (the 30-item version) [20,21], the Animal Verbal Fluency Test [22], the Symbol Digit Modalities Test [23], the Trail Making Test‚Äì```
Sample intent: background



Sample text:```…prevalence because of different definitions of depression, differences in depression screening methods, and different groups of participants (Massie & Holland, 1984; Ciaramella and Poli, 2001; Uchitomi et al., 2003; Katz et al., 2004; Ell et al., 2005; Boyd et al., 2012; Kim et al., 2012;…```

Sample text:```The stronger association observed between BMI and TBF than between BMI and PBF is consistent with several previous investigations (7, 21, 32).```
Sample intent: result



Sample text:```Our results confi rm previous studies that reached the same conclusion (Boushey et al 1994; Vermeulen et al 2000; Till et al 2005; Marcucci et al 2005).```
Sample intent: result



Sample text:```For example, we have shown that a depressive mood state and poor quality of life are less likely in elderly individuals who meet empirical minimum standards of habitual physical activity: >4,000 steps/day or >5 min/day at an intensity ≥3 metabolic equivalents (METs; Yasunaga et al., 2006; Yoshiuchi et al., 2006).```
Sample intent: method



Sample text:```We used longitudinal sequence samples for 15 patients from two independent studies [13,22].```
Sample intent: background



Sample text:```We used the stepwise multiple linear regression that accounts for repeated measurements in the same dog (4) first to test whether there was a difference among values for resistances and for elastances between control and emphysema at each mean Paw, considering the entire range of f and VT of forcing.```
