The statistical difference between demographic and clinical variables in the three groups was analyzed by using a single-factor ANOVA (the F-test statistic) for variables available for all three groups and a Students t test for variables available for the elderly group (subjects and comparison). A 3-year longitudinal study. We also tested the difference between the GADSS-HRSA correlation and the GADSS-PSWQ correlation (chi-square=4.8, df=1, p=0.02) (36).
