SE, standard error; ICC, intracluster correlation; MOR, median odds ratio; DIC, deviation information criterion. *Model 1 is the empty model, a baseline model without any determinant variable. Model 2 is adjusted for individual‐level factors. Model 3 is adjusted for community‐level factors. §Model 4 is final model adjusted for both individual‐ and community‐level factors.
