Constant | − 14.431 | 0.234 | 0.774 |
Ns vary due to missing cases; analyses on PrEP barriers restricted to sample of AMSM who had ever heard of PrEP. Dichotomous predictors coded as follows. Race: 0 = non-Hispanic White, 1 = racial/ethnic minority; parental education: 0 = less than college degree, 1 = undergraduate or graduate degree; sexual orientation: 0 = does not identify as gay (e.g., bisexual), 1 = identifies as gay; app use: 0 = never used GSN apps, 1 = ever used GSN apps; HIV testing: 0 = never tested for HIV, 1 = ever tested for HIV
