^aEach of the questions listed in Table 4 was analyzed using logistic regression. For the question assessing whether the respondent felt judged because of their weight those who responded “Not sure” were excluded from the analysis. For the questions assessing whether respondents felt they were treated with respect and treated as an equal, response categories were combined so that the dependent variable was “Always” vs “Not always.”
