These results are from a random intercept multilevel logistic regression. Coefficients are the AOR of having low expectations of care (defined as a rating of good or better on the vignettes). Data are unweighted.
aThe prompt for number of visits was “In the past year, how many times did you go to a clinic, health center, or hospital to receive health care for yourself? (Please do not include any times you stayed overnight.).”
bThe question regarding discrimination was “Have you ever been discriminated against, hassled, or made to feel inferior by a health provider/staff for any of these reasons?”
cThe likelihood ratio test compares this model to an ordinary logistic model and is significant for all outcomes. This supports the decision to use multilevel models.
Abbreviation: AOR, adjusted odds ratio
