  1. SE standard error, ICC intra-cluster correlation, MOR median odds ratio, DIC deviation information criterion
  2. aModel 1 is the empty model, a baseline model without any determinant variable
  3. bModel 2 is adjusted for individual-level factors
  4. cModel 3 is adjusted for community-level factors
  5. dModel 4 is final model adjusted for both individual- and community-level factors
