Note: Main effects and two-way interactions for focal predictors and vaccination status controlling for gender, age, income, ethnicity, and geographic region within Canada. Those reporting ‘don’t know’; ‘refused’; and ‘NA’ vaccination status were classified as unvaccinated. All coefficients are standardized Beta weights. Significant main effects of cognitive measures are highlighted in bold. BDEFS scores represent symptoms of executive dysfunction; as such higher scores indicate lower executive function. A negative coefficient indicates that relatively more intact executive function predicts more consistent mitigation behavior.
