Note. B (95%CI) = Parameter estimate for predictor from Generalized Estimating Equation with 95% confidence interval. CP = Conduct Problem.

Adjusted model is adjusted for demographic covariates, including ethnicity, sex, and parental education level.

Adjusted model is adjusted for peer substance use and positive urgency in addition to demographic covariates tested in ^aAdjusted.

Adjusted model is adjusted for depression, anxiety, and panic symptoms in addition to covariates tested in ^aAdjusted and ^bAdjusted.
