Note 1

Adjusted percentages are the predicted probabilities (between 0 and 1), multiplied by 100 to align with the data presented elsewhere in the model. A higher adjusted percentage represents an increased likelihood of the outcome being measured, when controlling for other factors. An adjusted percentage of 100 would mean that the likelihood of observing the phenomenon of interest (in this case, unwanted behaviours in public) is 100%.

Note 2

Following the results of the initial model, respondents who did not link to a tax record were included in this category. When leaving the two categories separate, for example, the adjusted percentage was 10.3% for income under $80,000 and 10.2% for those that did not link.

Note: This table shows the results of three separate models: one for the total population (including gender as an independent variable) and one each for women and men. The model was constructed based on variables that were significant in the bivariate analysis (see Table 11), and categories were removed or collapsed until only significant differences remained. Missing and not stated values are excluded.
