*On each factor, 22–34 occupational physicians failed to answer this question; the proportions in this column have been calculated after excluding the missing data. | ||||
†Association between communication and inhibitory factors is presented as OR with 95% CI. Results of multiple logistic regression analysis are presented as OR, adjusted for the other factors—that is, all other inhibitory factors, age, gender, and working status. | ||||
