Table 3. Results of modeling the estimated effects of prenatal cocaine exposure in 18- to 20-year-old African Americans (n=350).

Estimated Effecta Models Compared Range of P for Variables Listed in Tables 1 and 2
Overall effect (one-way layout) SR-/BE- = SR+/BE- = SR-/BE+ = SR+/BE+ .06 to .97
Factorial main effect (self-reported PCE) (SR-/BE- + SR-/BE+) = (SR+BE+ + SR+/BE-) .07 to .94
Factorial main effect (benzoylecgonine status) (SR-/BE- + SR+/BE-) = (SR-/BE+ + SR+/BE+) .02b to .99
Factorial interaction (synergy, BE x SR) (SR-/BE- - SR-/BE+) = (SR+/BE- - SR+/BE+) .07 to .96
Double-negative vs any positive (SR-/BE-) = (SR+/BE- + SR-/BE+ + SR+/BE+) .16 to .99
Extreme value (unconflicted) (SR-/BE-) = (SR+/BE+) .09 to .92

SR+/-, self-report positive/negative prenatal cocaine use; BE+/-, benzoylecgonine positive/negative prenatal presence.

a. All comparisons (including the extreme-value comparison) were conducted with full model denominator degrees of freedom (approximately 346).

b. Height (z), P=.02, P(Bonferroni) = .48; Height (cm), P=.02, P(Bonferroni) = .48 all others, P >.10.
