  1. Prevalence ratio (PR) for 100% positive assessments and for 0–49% positive assessments associated with different patient characteristics. Crude PRs are adjusted for clustering of patients. Adjusted PRs are adjusted for patients' gender, age, frequency of attending a GP, self-rated health and clustering of patients. Numbers in italics are used to indicate statistical significance.
  2. 1 Patients who marked 100% of the answered questions in one of the two most positive answering categories.
  3. 2 Patients who marked less than 50% (0–49%) of the answered questions in one of the two most positive answering categories.
  4. 3 Poisson regression with robust variance
