For determining effect of the intervention on ‘each of the IYCF practices' at both time points after adjusting for other socioeconomic and demographic variables prevalent at the time, we performed multivariable logistic regression with backward stepwise elimination variable selection method using “presence of each IYCF practice” as the dependent variable and all others as independent variables. The results of the multivariable analysis are reported as adjusted odds ratios (adjOR) with 95% CI. If the IYCF practice was followed at the time, we took it as ‘yes’ or else as ‘no’.
