  1. The table summarizes the standard estimates and probabilities of regression coefficients based on conditional averaging (29 = 512 models) for linear mixed models with the relationship between the number of established traded alien species in a country as the response variable and combinations of 9 factors as predictors (fixed effects) across 100 countries (n = 100). Biogeographical realm was included as a random effect. Significant results are marked in bold type.
