Note. Predictive margins analyses estimate the predicted value of an outcome variable (screening status) for a particular level of a predictor variable (communication/relationship quality), controlling for all other covariates in the regression model. Predictive margins estimates reported here controlled for gender, age, race, education, and household income.
