M = mean, SE = standard error of the mean
ANCOVAs were used for analyses
Means with the same alphabetic superscript (a-i) were statically significantly different based upon post-hoc follow-up test
Covariates included: age, education, religion, race, primary work population, and length of time in nursing
ξ Indicates that one or more assumption for ANCOVA was not met and therefore the Quade Nonparametric ANCOVA was used
