Values are presented as b coefficient (SE). For each social health measure, a series of 3 robust linear regression models are presented (1-1 to 1-3 for social connectedness and 2-1 to 2-3 for perceived social support) predicting change in current suicidal ideation score between baseline and 3-month follow-up. The threshold for significance is set to p < .01. Both series of 3 models correspond to progressive model results with health-related risk factors entered second and interactions between health-related risk factors and social health measures entered last. Positive regression coefficients indicate a risk-increasing effect on suicidal ideation.
∗p < .05 (nominal effect), ∗∗∗p < .001 (significant effect).
Social health measure corresponds to social connectedness in models 1-1 to 1-3 and to perceived social support in models 2-1 to 2-3.
