Note. Low – Low trajectory, Increasing – Increasing trajectory, High – High trajectory, NH – Non-Hispanic. NH White is the referent group for the racial/ethnic group comparisons while nonsmoking status is the referent group for the smoking status variables. All estimates are unstandardized. Each predictor/covariate was grand mean-centered except for nativity, physical activity, dummy variables for race/ethnicity, and sex, smoking variables to aid in interpretation. All estimates are unstandardized. Significant effects are bolded.
