1Multilevel mixed-effects generalized linear model with study arm and site as fixed effects and peer educator group as a random effect.
2All participants in the delivery arm received a self-test by definition; in coupon arm, “received” indicates they collected the HIV self-test.
3Measured via incentivized collection at the end of the study.
