  1. Model 1, bed net usage association with colour and shape preference adjusted for all available household covariates. Model 2, bed net usage association with colour, adjusting for all significant covariates only. Model 3, bed net usage association with colour and shape preference
  2. All continuous predictors are mean-centered and scaled by 1 standard deviation. ***p < 0.001; **p < 0.01; *p < 0.05
