  • a Rated from completely uncertain (1) to completely certain (6).

  • b Binary compared with no treatment; odds ratios of >1 indicate a higher probability of treatment, and odds ratios of <1 indicate a lower probability of treatment with an increase in the predictors.

  • c In SD units.

  • d P < .050.
