AOR = adjusted odds ratio. Ref = reference category. Income = annual household income. The AORs compare the given subgroup to the referent group, adjusting for all other variables in the model. For example, Asian respondents were 2.27 times more likely to be vaccinated than White respondents, adjusting for age, gender, education, living location, political leaning, and income. Model R2 Nagelkerke were 0.13 and 0.08 for the vaccination status and vaccination intention models, respectively.
