Notes: Level of statistical significance: * p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01; *** p < 0.001. ‡ Population level frequencies do not agree with Table 3 as don't know/refused responses were excluded from this analysis. § For pairwise comparison testing in subgroups with more than two categories comparisons are made between each subgroup prevalence and the overall population prevalence. ψPsychological distress was measured using the K10. Values range from 10–50, with 'high' psychological distress considered as being ≥ 22. Source: New South Wales Health Survey Program. Sydney: New South Wales Department of Health, 2008. | ||||
