Table 4 Linear regression models of intervention effects on index cervical cancer (CC)-related processes (mediators) at month 6, controlling for baseline measure of the mediator

* p values from bivariate comparisons using independent 2-tailed t-tests
Beta coefficients and standard errors (SE) are from multiple linear regression models of index CC-related at month 6 as the dependent variable, and independent variables consisting of intervention condition and the baseline measure of the CC-related process
