QuIRC  =  Quality Indicator for Rehabilitative Care.

Model A: QuIRC domain score entered as the only independent variable.

Model B: unit type (hospital or community) added to Model A.

Model C: service user characteristics added to Model B (age, GAF and psychosis or not).

Differences in % variance for each model also shown: B–A, C–B.
