Table 3. Univariate logistic regression analyses: surgeon characteristics versus likelihood of performing ambulatory surgery, location of ambulatory surgery, and investment in an ambulatory surgery center.

Variable	Perform ambulatory surgery	Ambulatory surgery at least part time in surgery center	Invest in surgery center
Orthopedic specialist	0.5084	0.9798	0.3084
Nonacademic practice setting	0.0219^a	0.0039^a	0.0012^a
Urban practice location	0.4247	0.0466^a ^b	0.2205
≤20 y in practice	0.3174	0.0467^a	0.0120^a

p < 0.05 (statistically significant).

Based on measurement of suburban rather than urban location.
