Results of logistic regression predicting the likelihood of always voting
| Predictor | B | SE | Wald | df | p | Odds ratio | 95% Confidence interval | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Attend MLA annual meeting yearly | 0.76 | 0.23 | 10.52 | 1 | 0.001 | 2.14 | 1.35 | 3.38 |
| Attend MLA annual meeting every other year | 0.20 | 0.27 | 0.58 | 1 | 0.446 | 1.22 | 0.73 | 2.06 |
| Current or past commitment on a national level | 0.70 | 0.24 | 8.69 | 1 | 0.003 | 2.02 | 1.27 | 3.22 |
| Current or past commitment on a chapter level | 0.76 | 0.21 | 12.88 | 1 | 0.000 | 2.15 | 1.41 | 3.26 |
| Current or past commitment on a section level | 0.57 | 0.23 | 5.95 | 1 | 0.015 | 1.76 | 1.12 | 2.78 |
Note: Frequency of MLA annual meeting attendance compared with attending less than every other year and current or past service was compared with no current or past service. Chapter meeting attendance was highly correlated with annual meeting attendance and, therefore, was not included in the model.
