Logistic regression will be performed to determine the impact of variables on each other. Descriptive continuous variables (such as age) will be presented as a mean and standard deviation. Sample size is set by the maximum number of those eligible to partake in this study, which are the registered female Fellows of the Australian Orthopaedic Association (~n = 50).
