^*The unstandardized regression coefficient represents the change in the dependent variable for each unit increase in the independent variable.

^†The standardized regression coefficient compares the magnitudes of the coefficients and indicates the relative importance of each variable in the model.

^‡1 = oriented toward doctor control, 0 = oriented toward shared control.

^§1 = male, 0 = female.

^‖1 = high school or less, 2 = some college or associate's degree, 3 = bachelor's or graduate degree.

^¶1 = less than $10K, 2 = $10–20K, 3 = $20–40K, 4 = $40–60K, 5 = $60–80K, 6 = $80–100K, 7 = over $100K.

^#1 = white, 2 = nonwhite.
