Note: Only Knowledge Score is statistically significant in predicting Compliance (the rest are may be due to chance): OR = 0.586, 95% CI: 0.361 0.951, p = 0.031. Interpretation of OR: for every increase in the Knowledge score by 1 point, theres an increase of odds of having compliance by 0.586.

Heres my own re-coding of the variables:

Variables: Age Gender [Gen_Rec] (0 = male, 1 = female) Employment [Emp_Rec] (I used Employment instead of Occupation) (0 = unemployed, 1 = employed) DM_yr = Number of years with DM type 2 (I used DM_yr instead of Diabnumyears) DM_rel = Does Px have Relatives with DM type 2? (0 = no, 1 = yes) (I used DM_rel instead of Diabrel) Educ_att = Educational attainment (0 = none, 1 = elementary, 2 = high school, 3 = college) (I used Educ_att instead of Edattain) Knowl_Sc = total score gotten in the knowledge test (I used Knowl_Sc instead of Knowledgeover) Att_Sc = total score gotten in the attitude test (I used Att_Sc instead of Attitudeover)
