UNK = Unknown. We did not ask the mixed-gender, men-only, and women-only groups if they were in romantic relationships and co-parenting with the mother/father of the child, nor did we ask whether they were cohabiting. The values (3, 3, 5, 3) considered known in these cells were based on relationship and cohabiting status reported in a previous participant data file from which a portion of participants were recruited.
