Note. AOR = adjusted odds ratio; CI = confidence interval; COR = crude odds ratio; GED = general equivalency diploma; HS = high school; NHANES = National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey. The sample size was n = 16 220.

a

Variable not included in multivariate modeling because of collinearity with birth year.

b

Variable not significant in simple or multivariate models and therefore not included in the final model.
