Note. Full multivariable linear regression models for each rating included: age (under 50 vs. 51–60 vs. 61+), sex (M vs F), living arrangements (alone vs. with others), financial stress (yes vs. no; Yes = moderate, considerable or extreme, No = none or mild); education (trade vs. secondary vs. tertiary); have close confidante (no vs. yes); mental health history (yes vs. no), attend CR = attend cardiac rehabilitation (no vs. yes), have diabetes (yes vs. no), have obesity (yes vs. no), number of SCADs (one vs. two or more), time since most recent SCAD (previous year vs. 13–36 months vs. 37–60 months vs. over 5 years ago); CI = confidence intervals; p = significance level. Bold indicates statistically significant results using Benjamini-Hochberg Adjusted p values.
