a

Unweighted N = 110,441.

b

P values come from Wald tests of the joint significance of the coefficients across all categories of the dependent variable.

c

All models use cubic splines to adjust for age in years, with knots at ages 35, 50, and 65 (refer to Figure 1).

d

All models that include the health behaviors also adjust for the number of drinks consumed in the last week, raised to the powers of 0.5 and 1 (refer to Figure 2).
