Results. The mean anger/aggressiveness score of patients with MDD was 0.82, significantly higher (p < .01) compared with that of patients with anxiety (0.57) or somatoform disorders(0.58). The difference remained significant (p < .01) when multivariate analysis of variance was used to adjust for age and gender. Also, the proportion of patients with clinically relevant anger/aggressiveness (score ≥ 2) was significantly higher(p < .05) among patients with MDD (N = 48, 21.6%) than among patients with anxiety (N = 29, 12.3%) or somatoform disorders (N = 3, 11.5%). The difference remained significant(p < .01) in a multiple logistic regression model including age and gender
