1

Estimates are weighted and based on available data among those raised by their “natural” mothers or fathers.

2

Only probands whose mothers and fathers who were impaired by substance use were asked whether their parents received treatment.

3

All models control for the proband's age, race, gender, and level of education.

4

Standard errors for models testing the association between maternal substance abuse treatment history could not be calculated due to sampling strata with a single sampling unit, thus confidence intervals and test statistics are not available (n/a). Models were also run weighted with scaled certainty units as well as unweighted and were not significant.

Estimates are based on those raised by their natural mothers and fathers.
