Table 4.

“Normal” (QTT T1 pain T2) and “reverse” (pain T1 QTT T2) time-lagged effects from path analyses

Normal causality model Reverse causality model Reciprocal causality model
Path Est [95% CI] Est [95% CI] Est [95% CI]
Neck pain QTT T1 Pain T2 0.08 [0.02, 0.14] - 0.08 [0.03, 0.14]
Pain T1 QTT T2 - 0.02 [-0.06, 0.09] 0.03 [-0.04, 0.10]

Note: QTT: Quality of technology training, Est: Estimate, CI: Confidence interval

Effect estimates are derived from ordinal probit regressions, and only direction and significance should be interpreted. All models are adjusted for age, gender, educational level, number of years employed in current position, and percentage employement. Statistically significant estimates are given in bold
