Summary of final logistic regression model for accuracya
| Variable | Estimate (β) | SE | z value | p value | Odds ratio |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Intercept | −1.107 | 0.164 | −6.746 | <0.001 | 0.33 |
| Course work | 0.684 | 0.192 | 3.572 | <0.001 | 1.98 |
| Years in College | 0.188 | 0.094 | 1.981 | 0.048 | 1.21 |
an = 511. Bolded values are significantly different from 0 (p < 0.05). This final model is a product of a model selection process that finds the most significant variables. Initially included variables were “Course work” (whether the student self-reported taking course work addressing vaccines), “Confidence” (whether the student reported being confident in their vaccine knowledge), “Gender,” “First-Generation” (college-going status), “Race/Ethnicity” (reference level is white race), “Expertise Level” (NPH, PH, or EBM status), and “Years in College” (linear variable, “freshman” designated as 0 years).
