Does depression really decrease with age? Or are non-depressed people likely to live longer, thus making it seem like people get less depressed over the course of their lives because the non-depressed make up an increasing fraction of the population as the others die off as age⬆️

Still plenty of stats puns you can make with ‘Cohen’s D’. EG: “The difference between Cohen’s D and Colby’s D is that I don’t consider 0.8 to be large”
