Final multiple logistic regression models for aims 1 and 2.

Variablea Adjusted odds ratio (95% CI)

Aim 1 final modelb Aim 2 final modelc
Step 1: control variables

Multimorbidity 0.87 (0.7-1.1) 0.93 (0.74-1.2)

Age (years) 1.03 (0.99-1.1) 1.03 (0.99-1.1)

Gender 0.6 (0.16-2.2) 0.41 (0.1-1.6)

IIRS × education 31 (2.2-430)g

aMeasurement of variables is as follows (variable: measurement)—multimorbidity: chronic disease counts from the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services Chronic Condition Warehouse [45]; age, gender, education: questions from the US Census and other national surveys; income: Likert-type question asking, “How hard is it for you to pay for the very basics like food, housing, medical care, and heating?” [44]; perceived usefulness: Perceived Usefulness Scale modified for mHealth apps [22,23]; perceived ease of use: Perceived Ease of Use Scale modified for mHealth apps [22,23]; social influence: Social Influence Scale modified for mHealth apps [23,30]; burden of chronic disease or treatment: Illness Intrusiveness Ratings Scale [53].

dP<.001.

eIIRS: Illness Intrusiveness Ratings Scale.
