Reference group is the Biphilic/Androphilic Desisters. This group was chosen as the reference because it had the largest group size. A preliminary analysis with marital status included as a predictor variable showed that it did not have a significant effect and was, therefore, excluded in the final regression model. As suggested by Reviewer 3, per Benjamin et al. (116), for the “discovery of new effects,” p-values between 0.05 and 0.005 should be viewed as “suggestive” (i.e., informative, but cautiously interpreted), and p-values < 0.005 as “significant” (i.e., stronger evidence for the implausibility of a difference merely by chance).
