Results of Conditional and Unconditional Ordinal Logistic Regression Models Predicting Court Dispositions From Race/Ethnicity and Overall Risk Level

Predictor	Model 6.1 OR [95% CI]	Model 6.2 OR [95% CI]
Intercept 1	4.73 [3.69, 6.07]	5.72 [4.73, 6.91]
Intercept 2	40 [31, 52]	48 [39, 59]
Black	0.60 [0.45, 0.78]	0.49 [0.40, 0.59]
Hispanic	0.65 [0.50, 0.86]	0.53 [0.43, 0.64]
Overall risk	0.30 [0.24, 0.38]	0.23 [0.22, 0.25]
Black × Overall Risk	0.76 [0.59, 0.98]
Hispanic × Overall Risk	0.75 [0.58, 0.97]
Residual deviance (df)	8,991 (11149)	8,996 (11151)

Note. Disposition was treated as an ordered-categorical variable with three categories: 1 = deferred adjudication, 2 = probation without placement, and 3 = probation with placement. Intercept 1 represents the log odds of being equal to 1 (deferred adjudication vs. probation without placement and probation with placement). Intercept 2 represents the log odds of being less than or equal to 2 (deferred adjudication and probation without placement vs. probation with placement). OR = odds ratio; CI = confidence interval.
