a

Each ventile represents 5% of married couples in the sample ranked in terms of their predicted risk of marital violence

b

Estimates calculated from 20 replicates of 10-fold cross-validation of the final model

c

Estimates calculated from the final model

d

Concentration of risk refers to the percent of all observed occurrences of the outcome in a ventile or ventiles of the predicted risk distribution
