Table 4 Linear regression analyses of the association between perceived communication efficacy and unmet needs for symptom management (N = 203)

	Model 1
Variables	B	95% CI	SE	β	t	p	B	95% CI	SE	β	t	p
Perceived communication efficacy	-0.04	-0.06, -0.02	0.01	-0.26	-3.81	< 0.001	-0.02	-0.03, -0.00	0.01	-0.13	-2.57	0.011
Symptom severity							0.10	0.09, 0.12	0.01	0.64	12.68	< 0.001
Sex							-0.50	-1.07, 0.07	0.29	-0.09	-1.72	0.087
Monthly household income							-0.66	-1.35, 0.03	0.35	-0.10	-1.90	0.059

Note. CI = confidence intervals. In Model 1, R² = 0.07, F = 14.50, p < 0.001; In Model 2, symptom severity and monthly household income were controlled, R² = 0.52, F = 53.32, p < 0.001. ΔR² = 0.45 between Model 1 and Model 2
