Reference group: no other disorder, GoF: χ(4)2 = 13.537; p = 0.009; Nagelkerke's R2 = 0.179. aValues from Bootstrapping (N = 627). bn.c., not calculable due to zero cases with the present item in the reference group. cBecause bootstrapping does not require distributional assumptions, the bootstrap provides more accurate inferences when the data are not well-behaved, e.g., including little events, or when the sample size is small (51). Thus, we followed the bootstrapping results, and considered variables significant predictors if the bootstrapping became significant, even if these were non-significant in the initial regression analysis and, therefore, included the 1 within the 95%-CI.
