regression: dichotomous (Like smoking, hypertension). Age = Age of individual in years at the time of observation. Community = Intervention or Reference. Time1 = Sample at midtime or other sample. Time2 = Final sample (after intervention) or other. The interaction terms (multiplicative terms of community x Time1 and multiplicative terms of community x Time2) represent the intervention effect at midtime and after the intervention period). |
