Model statistics	χ²(5) = 18.86, p = .0020, McFadden’s pseudo R² = .0250, AIC = 745.94, n = 609			χ²(7) = 25.85, p < .001, McFadden’s pseudo R² = .0343, AIC = 742.95, n = 609

The binary logistic regression models are based on all parents who were not offered a webcam system during their infant’s NICU stay (fully completed cases only). The p-value for the model fit was generated using likelihood-ratio chi-squared test; for the odds ratios’ p-values Wald tests (z-values) were used. CI Confidence interval for odds ratios, p p-value for odds ratios after the Bonferroni-Holm correction, ref. Reference category, pseudo R² McFadden’s-R², AIC Akaike information criterion
