Note: The table presents main effects estimates from fully interactive logistic regression models with accelerated track set as the moderator reference category. Variable reference categories include white race and a grade of A. SES = socioeconomic status.
Significant differences at the .05 level (on the basis of interaction terms) compared with model estimates for standard track.
p < .05,
p < .01, and
p < .001 (two tailed).
