Associations of sense of coherence with psychological distress and quality of life in inflammatory bowel disease

Table 4 Hierarchical multiple regression analyses to assess whether sense of coherence is a moderator of the relationship between time since diagnosis and psychological distress symptoms (i.e., depressive and anxiety symptoms) (n = 147)

	Depressive symptoms			Anxiety symptoms
	model 1	model 2	model 3	model 1	model 2	model 3
(z) Time since diagnosis	0.235b	0.100	0.068	0.282b	0.165	0.135
(z) SOC	-	-0.504d	-0.500d	-	-0.438d	-0.434d
(z) Time since diagnosis × SOC	-	-	-0.191d	-	-	-0.172d
Adjusted R2 of the model	0.080	0.314	0.344	0.062	0.236	0.260
Significance of F change	0.026	< 0.001	0.009	0.056	< 0.001	0.026

Values shown are standardized beta regression coefficients adjusted for sex, race, age, education, marital status, income, disease type, surgery for Inflammatory bowel disease, relapse rate, and disease in remission.
