Model 1: baseline (time, age at first use, anxiety); Model 2: time, age at first use, anxiety, delinquency; Model 3: time, age at first use, anxiety, interaction of time and anxiety; Model 4: time, age at first use, anxiety, delinquency, interaction of anxiety and delinquency; Model 5: time, age at first use, anxiety, and interaction of age at first use and time. When interaction effects are included in a model, we present main effect odds ratios of the variables included in the interaction; those odds ratios represent the effect of one variable at the mean of the other variable
