  1. Notes: Regressions also controlled for gender and location. Estimated coefficients and 95% confidence intervals are reported. Coefficients in bold indicate the covariate had a significant effect on the learning outcome at the 5% level. Covariates were gender, residential location, professional discipline, work setting, employment remoteness, and years of practice. Categorical variables were dummy coded. The base category for professional discipline was GP/social worker/physician/occupational therapist/others. The base category for work setting was private practice/ED treatment service/Headspace/GP clinic/others. The base category for years of practice was above 5 years. The base category for work remoteness is metropolitan area
