Hood III and Morris (2000), Newton (2000), and Tam and Cain (2001), for instance, have looked at the determinants of support for proposition 187 in California, which limited the access enjoyed by illegal immigrants to a series of welfare state benefits.
Multivariable logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the determinants of support for a tax increase.
A logistic regression analysis was conducted to examine the determinants of support for a tax increase.
It is also possible that the determinants of support for a tax increase differ across scenarios.
Another area of future research would be to investigate the determinants of support for specific dollar values of tax increases.
This was measured by the proportion of households from each group expressing support for different categories of subsidy, and (3) the determinants of support for redistributive mechanisms.
A series of exploratory analyses were also conducted to investigate whether the determinants of support for a tax increase differed by individual scenario.
In the exploratory regression analyses pertaining to determinants of support for a tax increase under each individual scenario (Table 3), family members' or friends' approval of a participant's decision to support a tax increase was statistically significant at the 5% level in all full and reduced models.
Secondly, there are significant gender differences in the factors associated with receiving support from different sources; for example, physical health is a strong determinant of informal support receipt by men, while mental health status is a strong determinant of informal support receipt by women.
Although a person's difficulty with performing ADLs or IADLs, and therefore a person's need, remains by far the strongest determinant of receiving support from any source, such associations point towards the relative importance of a person's socio-economic status in having their needs met, particularly in relation to IADLs.
