Note. Low-use is the referent. Hispanic was equal to 1 for individuals who responded yes to a question asking if they were of Hispanic descent and 0 for those who responded no. Thus, the referent group for Hispanics was non-Hispanics. Because of their low substance use during emerging adulthood, Black was given a value of 1 and the referent group contained individuals who identified as Asian/Pacific Islander, White, and Other.
