a

Individuals lacking a response to the same question on one or both interviews could not be included in the counts for that question. Therefore, the total number of participants in each group does not always add up to the number randomized.

b

Response was ‘yes’ on the audio computer-assisted self-interviewing (ACASI) and ‘no’ on the computer-assisted personal interviewing (CAPI).

c

Response was ‘yes’ on the CAPI and ‘no’ on the ACASI.

*

P ≤ 0.05 for a difference between ACASI and CAPI responses by the Wilcoxon rank sum test.

**

P ≤ 0.01 for a difference between ACASI and CAPI responses by Prescott’s test (Ever had sex) or the Wilcoxon rank sum test.
