3. Results of HGLM Poisson regression with overdispersion^a for health factors and general health .

Factor category	Item (in z–score)	Coeff.	Robust SE	t–Ratio	Approx. DF	P	ERR	Rank
aThe seven demographic variables were controlled in the model but not shown in this table for clarity. The estimates of the intercept, the level-1 overdispersion parameter, and the level-2 residual variance are also not included in this table. SE: standard error; DF: degree of freedom; ERR: event rateratio.
