Abbreviations: ER, estrogen receptor; PR, progesterone receptor; RPF, reproductive factors; SEP, socioeconomic position.

a Model 1 was a logistic regression model of ER/PR-negative breast cancer as a function of age and minority ethnicity.

b Model 2 consisted of model 1 with the addition of the composite variable for SEP.

c Model 3 consisted of model 1 with the addition of the composite variable for RPF.

d Model 4 consisted of model 1 with the addition of the composite variables for both SEP and RPF.

e Model 5 consisted of model 4 with the addition of the variables for body mass index, breastfeeding, and oral contraceptive use.

f Corresponds to nonnested models.
