Notes: We also tested other variables in the regressions, including employment status and job type, more-detailed household structure (e.g., living with one or both parents, number of siblings), and other lifestyle measures (e.g., cigarette smoking, dietary measures, free-time activities). None of these variables were significant, and their inclusion does not substantially alter the results presented in the table; they were therefore left out of the final models.
