Note. n/a = Cell size for Montenegro too small to calculate statistics. OR = Odds ratio for Motor disability x Country interaction. Odds ratios > 1.00 indicate that caregivers of children with motor disabilities are more likely than the grand mean across countries to report the use of the respective type of discipline. Odds ratios < 1.00 indicate that caregivers of children with motor disabilities are less likely than the grand mean across countries to report the use of the respective type of discipline. Results from models including interactions are given in the text.
