Note: N=177 clinicians in K = 21 clinics. Coefficients were estimated using 2-level linear mixed effects models with random intercepts for clinics. Missing data were addressed using Bayesian multiple imputation. All models controlled for State. EBP = evidence-based practice; ICC(1) = intraclass correlation coefficient; MBC = measurement-based care. Unadjusted models indicate the bivariate relationships between the antecedents and outcomes; adjusted models indicate the partial relationships between antecedents and outcomes controlling for all other variables in the model.
