Data were adjusted for the respective company. A median split procedure was used to dichotomize the comprehension sum score (range: 0 – 11) into lower comprehension (below or equal to the median of 9; n = 588) or higher comprehension (above the median of 9; n = 442).

The reduced sample size in the regression model reflects missing data on income.
