Note: variables in the first column are not adjusted by one another. BIC: Bayesian information criteria. Model 1-adjusted by potential confounding factor: macroregion + population size + urban area (%) + FHS and OHT coverage (%) + team time + performance incentive + institutional support + DSC support + self-assessment. Model 2-adjusted by model 1 and mediation factors: receiving students + guaranteed scheduling + form of scheduling appointments.
