Multivariable model includes independent variables that had p<.20 from bivariate models.

Values are OR (95% CI) from logistic regression models of having low decision conflict (DCS <25 group, n=297, 56.1%) versus higher decision conflict (DCS ≥25, n=232, 43.9%). The odds ratio (OR) for continuous predictors is per a 1-point increase.
