Base choice for each outcome is no access to school. The reference category for a predictor is in parentheses.
A This model treated the disability predictor as Not disabled (n = 1625) vs. any disability (n = 388)
B This model treated the disability predictor as Not disabled vs. disabled across different types
C This model treated the disability predictor as Not severely disabled (n = 1887) vs. severely disability (n = 126)
D This model treated the disability predictor as Not disabled (n = 1625) vs. mild and moderate (n = 260) or severe (n = 128)
