Boys Girls
OR (95 % CI) OR (95 % CI)
Family Support 6.9 (2.6, 18.3) 3.7 (1.4, 9.4)
Friend Support 13.8 (4.8, 40.2) 3.7 (1.4, 9.7)

Note. Variables dichotomized as 1 = lowest tertile of scale and 0 = middle/upper tertiles combined

Note. OR odds ratio, CI confidence interval

Note. Mean for lowest tertile for boys’ Family Support at age 17 was 1.19 and mean for Friend Support was 1.50. Mean for lowest tertile for girls’ Family Support at age 17 was 1.15 and mean for Friend Support was 1.28
