Note: Reference categories are: for Gender, Male; Race/ethnicity, White; Socioeconomic Status – Highest parent education, Professional degree; Socioeconomic Status – Income, More than $100,000. All models are adjusted for age and pubertal status. Models with household income are additionally adjusted for the number of people living in the participant’s household. All interactions among predictor variables in Models 3-5 were tested, respectively; none were significant (data not shown). Some college also includes trade school post high school. Asterisks in Highest parent education and Household income rows refer to the significance level for the overall test of the given variable.
