a
Higher scores indicate higher level of health literacy.
b
Higher scores indicate worse severity of complaints.
c
OR increase per stated complaint; OR >1 indicates a higher chance of having at least 1 mismatch between app-based and in-person interviews (model 1) or indicates a higher chance of less stated complaints during the app-based compared to the in-person interviews (model 2).
Abbreviation: OR = odds ratio.
