Two subjects had 36-month PDI scores below the minimal obtainable score of 50 and were therefore considered untestable.
0 indicates male; 1, female.
0 indicates Dominican; 1, African American.
0 indicates less than high school education; 1, equivalent to or greater than high school education.
0 indicates no ETS; 1, ETS.
