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 |

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).
