ANOVA = analysis of variance.
↵* Unless otherwise indicated, values are mean ± standard deviation (minimum, maximum) of the sample. In people without maltreatment, no Childhood Trauma Questionnaire subscale was above the cut-off; in people with maltreatment, at least 1 subscale was above the cut-off.
↵† Unless otherwise indicated, p values were derived from univariate ANOVA (uncorrected), not adjusted.
↵‡ p value derived from a χ2 test (uncorrected).
