Frequency distribution of the GSI values obtained for patients from the POC and patients from the TMD/OFPOC in consideration of the clinical reference values (percentages shown in parentheses)


Patients from the POC (n = 64)
Patients from the TMD/OFPOC (n = 59)
p

GSI displayed according to the clinical groups


n.s.
     GSI<=0.65 (normative sample)
44 (68.8)
41 (69.5)

     GSI>0.65 and <1.35 (psychotherapeutic outpatients)
14 (21.9)
13 (22.0)

     GSI>=1.35 (psychotherapeutic inpatients)
6 (9.4)
5 (8.5)


For group comparisons Chi-square test was applied: n. s. = not significant; * = p < 0.05; ** = p < 0.01; *** = p < 0.001
