Table 5. Effect of Ebola disease transmission level and survey timing on intention to wait for burial teams and to avoid physical contact with suspected patients, Sierra Leone, 2014–2015.

Interaction between transmission level and survey timing	Coefficients used to calculate oddsa	OR (95% CI)
		Intention to wait for burial team if family member died	Self-reported prevention practice of avoiding physical contact with suspected Ebola patients
After the outbreak peak versus before the peak in high-transmission regions	exp (β1)	6.2 (4.2–9.1)	1.9 (1.4–2.5)
After the outbreak peak versus before the peak in low-transmission regions	exp (β1 + β3)	2.3 (1.4–3.8)	0.8 (0.6–1.2)
Low- versus high-transmission regions before the outbreak peak	exp (β2)	4.1 (2.6–6.5)	3.6 (2.4–5.2)
Low- versus high-transmission regions after the outbreak peak	exp (β2 + β3)	1.5 (1.0–2.3)	1.5 (1.2–2.0)
After the peak in low-transmission regions versus before the peak in high-transmission regions	exp (β1 + β2 + β3)	9.6 (6.1–15.2)	2.9 (2.1–4.0)

CI: confidence interval; OR: odds ratio.

^a The log odds of a specific knowledge, attitude or prevention practice in the multilevel logistic regression model = β0 + β1 (stage of outbreak) + β2 (region) + β3 (stage of outbreak × region interaction) + β4 (education) + β5 (sex) + β6 (age) + β7 (religion) + cluster random intercept.
