Note. Coefficients for all residence groups represent contrasts relative to campus dorms, and coefficients for area of residence represent contrasts relative to individuals from suburban high schools. Family structure was coded 0 for two-parent households and 1 for households without two resident parents such that positive coefficients reflect increased risk in households without two resident parents.
