Note. B = KHB logistic regression coefficients indicating cohort difference (reference group Evergreen cohort), SE = standard error, R2 = Pseudo R2. *p < .05, **p < .01, ***p < .001 indicating a statistically significant difference in KHB logistic regression coefficients between a model with only a birth cohort and a model with covariate(s). Each covariate was added in the model one at a time with birth cohort and all five together in the model “All.”
