OR = Odds Ratio, CI = Confidence interval.

ORs/CIs in bold indicate significance at p < .001.

Note: We excluded working status, children under 5 and language to avoid having an inadequate number of expected frequencies (i.e. because nearly all women with a child under 5 were <45 years; nearly all white British/Irish women spoke English as their first language; and almost all of the social grade E women were not working, by definition Social grade E includes the unemployed).
