Note: In Section A–B, entries marked with * differ significantly from the United States value. In Section B, bold entries differ significantly from zero, indicating ETHNIC MINORITY sensitivity. Negative values indicate poorer adaptability with ethnic minorities. Root mean squared standard error of means in Section A = 0.33 (range = 0.22–0.48). Abbreviations are explained in the first footnote to table 2.
