^aIn these results, β indicates the difference in number of resources used (log transformed); positive values indicate more resources used compared with a reference group; * indicates an alpha of 0.05, ** indicates an alpha of 0.01, *** indicates an alpha of 0.001, and NS indicates that the model was not significant.
