Fig. 3

Prevalence ratios contrasting the adjusted probability of HIV risk behaviours for two scenarios among boys: (i) at the mean of continuous protective factors; and (ii) at the maximum of continuous protective factors. We only calculated prevalence ratios where there was evidence of significant associations between protective factors and odds of HIV risk behaviours. There was no evidence that estimated prevalence ratios contrasting the adjusted probability of transactional sex or condomless sex in the absence and presence of education enrolment were significant, so we did not plot them. Values used to build Fig. 3 are summarised in Supplementary Table 13, Additional file 1
