Spearman correlation coefficients (N=76). Correlation studies of our multiple-choice, demographic-defining questions (1 and 2) and our multiple-choice questions utilizing Likert scales (4, 9, 10, 11, 12, and 15) were conducted using the Spearman correlation coefficient. Statistically significant correlations are shown in italics. For each pair of questions, correlation coefficients and P values are included.
