  1. The right column (‘Effects of Severity’) shows the results of the statistical comparison between the three sub-samples, with significant post-hoc tests indexed by greater-than signs. The three top rows display the number of claimants in each sub-sample (N), the number of female and male claimants, and the mean age. The following rows show the Mini-ICF-APP ratings in each capacity domain, as well as the two global capacity ratings (MICFmean and MICFtotal). The numbers in parentheses refer to the standard deviations (SDs). RWC estimates of two claimants were missing. Claimants with severe depressive episodes had the highest MICFmean as well as the highest percentage of claimants with low RWC
