^*The Table only includes variables that remained significant in the multivariate analysis. Variables for which p-values were less than 0.25 in the univariate model were included in the multivariate models (country of origin, income, health insurance, abortion technique and health care setting). We also introduced ‘age’ as a control variable, although the p-value was greater than 0.25 in the univariate analysis for La Réunion. Variables for which p-values were 0.25 or more (living in a couple, number of children ever born, previous abortion, level of education, professional situation) were not included in the multivariate models.
