CI—confidence interval, OR—odds ratio.
Statistically significant associations using Bonferroni adjustment (P<.008) are in bold type. Nearly significant results (.0 >P>.008) are in italics.
Odds ratios for higher versus lower response of Likert scale of the response from proportional odds models, adjusted for sex, race, education, marital status, self-rated health, practice site
Male versus female (female is reference category)
Black versus white; non-black, nonwhite versus white (white is reference category)
Associate degree and above versus less than high school (comparisons of “some college” and “high school grad,” respectively, to the reference category of “less than high school” were not statistically significant)
Married versus never married (comparison of the composite group “widowed, living with partner, or separated/divorced” versus “never married” was not statistically significant)
Poor/fair self-rated health versus excellent/very good (comparison of “good” versus “fair/poor” self-rated health was not statistically
