Two subjects had 36-month PDI scores below the minimal obtainable score of 50 and were therefore considered untestable.

b

0 indicates male; 1, female.

c

0 indicates Dominican; 1, African American.

d

0 indicates less than high school education; 1, equivalent to or greater than high school education.

e
