Age of abuse takes values from 1 to 17 where those first abused after the age of 17 are capped at 17. Coercion and nature of abuse are three level ordinal variables that range from 1 (least coercive or invasive) to 3 (most coercive or invasive). Number of instances of abuse is ordinal where 4–9 instances are combined as are 10 or more instances. All variables are treated as continuous for the regression models.
