Only successful seeds (n = 165) were considered in this analysis (seeds who invited a recruit who also completed the survey). Recruits in waves 1–6 were lumped together (n = 385).
We used the 2-sample χ2 test for equality of proportions with continuity correction to estimate P values. The Fisher exact test was used for contingency tables containing small values (n < 10).
