aThe odds ratios, confidence intervals, and p values were obtained from a logistic regression model that included terms for intervention group, respondent (mentor, protégé), and the response to the item at baseline. The model was fitted using generalized estimating equations to account for the association between the mentor and protégé responses in the same dyad; the technique of alternating logistic regressions was used, with the associations between outcomes within the same dyad being modeled using a constant log odds ratio.

bWhite protégés include only non-Hispanic white protégés.

cOR, odds ratio; CI, confidence interval.
