Notes:

a

Because some study participants did not provide responses to all of the survey questions, the total respondent numbers for each group (eg, age, country, residence location) may vary;

b

in the USA, France, and Brazil, only women aged 18–49 years were recruited;

c

total percentage is not 100% due to rounding.
