  1. *Significant for multiple logistic regression model (p < 0.05), ** Significant for simple logistic regression model (p ≤ 0.25). COR, Crude odds ratio; AOR, adjusted odds ratio, Assumptions of logistic regression have been met and the Hosmer–Lemeshow goodness-of-fit test indicated good fit (X2 = 5.9, p = 0.650); Negelkerke R2 = 0.239, variance inflation factors (VIF) are less than five for all variables included in this model.
