In “The Transition of Social Isolation and Related Psychological Factors in 2 Mild Lockdown Periods During the COVID-19 Pandemic in Japan: Longitudinal Survey Study” (JMIR Public Health Surveill 2022;8(3):e32694) the authors noted one error.

In Table 2 of the originally published article, the standard deviations of the PHQ-9 in phases 1 and 2 in the 'Persistent-SI' group were missed. The table was originally published as shown in Multimedia Appendix 1.

The 2 SD values were 5.93 and 6.07, respectively, and the corrected Table 2 is as follows:
