Note: values in the same row and subtable not sharing the same subscript are significantly different at in the two-sided test of equality for column proportions. Cells with no subscript are not included in the test. Tests assume equal variances.²
¹This category is not used in comparisons because its column proportion is equal to zero or one.
²Tests are adjusted for all pairwise comparisons within a row of each innermost subtable using the Bonferroni correction.
