β = Beta Coefficient. aβ = Adjusted Beta Coefficient. 95% CL = 95% Confidence Limit. OR = Odds Ratio. aOR = Adjusted Odds Ratio. 95% CI = 95% Confidence Interval. Crude Models include survey mode as a design covariate. Multivariable models are adjusted for age, gender identity, race/ethnicity, sexual orientation, education, income, health insurance, and survey mode. Bolded text indicates statistical significance at the alpha 0.05-level.
