P<.05.

All regressions controlled for covariates (age, sex, completion of high school, ethnicity, count of chronic diseases, marriage, alcohol use, dysthymia, household wealth, timing of enrollment) and baseline values of the dependent variable. Satisfaction with participation in care is controlled for baseline satisfaction with care for personal problems.
