N = 395. Containment / contain refers to behaviors that cat owners can undertake to ensure their cat(s) remain on their property. Roaming refers to allowing cats to leave an owner’s property. B = unstandardized beta coefficients. CI = confidence interval. LB = lower bound. UB = upper bound. β = standardized beta coefficients. sr2 = squared semi-partial correlation coefficient (the proportion of variance the predictor uniquely explained in the dependent variable over and above the other predictors). All predictors ranged from a minimum 1 to maximum 5.
R2 = 0.56. Adjusted R2 = 0.55.
