1Logistic model type; 2 Negative Binomial model type.     *p<0.05, **p<0.01, ***p<0.001.   Referent groups: Underweight/Healthy weight, does not have a medical home, White non-Hispanic, Male, Single Parent, 200-399% federal poverty level, fair/poor, mother mental health, uninsured.
2Pseudo R squared =1 – loglikelihood (full model)/ loglikelihood (intercept). Unlike ordinary linear regression, the model cannot be judged based on Pseudo R-squared.
