Multivariate Analysis for Expectations and Psychosocial Distress

Variables B ± s.e. P-value
Expectation score
 Body contouring 14.89 ± 2.65 <.001
 Married or common-law −9.44 ± 2.25 <.001
 Injectable and/or skin treatment −7.20 ± 2.88 .013
Psychosocial distress score
 Minimally invasive treatment −10.07 ± 2.89 .001
 Antiaging facial surgery −7.11 ± 2.79 .011

B, B-coefficient from univariate linear regression; s.e., standard error.

Positive B-coefficients mean that the predictor (or increasing values of the predictor) was associated with worse scores (higher expectations or more psychosocial distress), whereas negative B-coefficients suggested that the predictors (or increasing values of the predictor) were associated with better scores (lower expectations or less psychosocial distress).
