We analyzed descriptive statistics for quantitative variables, using STATA (version 15, StataCorp). For the GAD-2 and PHQ-2, we summed the two questions and applied a cut-off ≥3 to generate a dichotomous variable. Scores ≥3 were classified as “clinically diagnosable” independently for anxiety and depression [16,17]. Responses to open-ended questions were open-coded verbatim to identify relevant themes and corroborated with two additional investigators.
