Table 1. Participant Demographics.
Demographic characteristics of the Upper Midwest Knowledge, Attitudes, and Prevention Behaviors (KAB) survey participants, by state of residence (Michigan (MI), Minnesota (MN), or Wisconsin (WI); United States), compared to 2018 American Community Survey (ACS) 5-year census estimates (2014–2018) of recruited counties. Post-stratified weights were calculated based on age and sex by county using 2018 ACS 5-year estimates. Note that post-stratified KAB percentages do not match age and sex census percentages due to lack of survey participants for every joint age and sex stratum for the population.
