Table 6. The estimated probabilities of behaviour related to either the dog (D and DA visits) or the activity (DA and A visits).

The estimated probabilities are shown as median and interquartile range (IQR) for each period. The estimates derive from the final generalised linear mixed models, and are corrected for significant factors in the respective models. Letters within variable (a, b) indicate differences across period. Visits with a dog, no activity (D); Visits with a dog, with activity (DA); Visits without dog, with an activity (A).
