a

Final multivariable logistic regression model adjusted for age, race/ethnicity, education, income, sexual identity disclosure (“outness”), HIV status, STD history, drug and alcohol use, sexual partner meeting venues, and depression.

b

Approached significance (p < 0.10).

c

p < 0.05

d

p < 0.01.
