Note: The Step 1 model includes SC9, SC13, SC14, SC17, SC23, SC27, SC30, SC31, and K52 with Physician Type as a covariate. The step 2 model is identical except that SC23 is eliminated. Step 3 eliminates both SC23 and SC27. Predictor variables are modeled as integer counts indicating the total number of times a particular code was applied to text from a specific simulation. Because SC19 and SC28 were not significant univariate predictors of any of these outcomes, they were omitted from these models. Coefficients are presented for only those variables achieving statsistical significance; model coefficients for all variables are available on request to the senior author.
