  1. Note: The total number of calls reporting each subtype were used as each row’s denominator to calculate percentages. Note that row sums of Supplemental Table 3 (frequencies of co-occurrences between each subtype) differ from the corresponding total number of calls listed in Table 3 because some calls reported more than two different subtypes of abuse
  2. aStatistically significant difference between Time 1 and Time 2 (\({\upchi }^{2}=23.52, p<0.001)\)
