Table 4.

Predictors of latent class membership for past 12-months any nonmedical use of prescription medications (NUPM) class.

Any NUPM Class (16%)
OR (95% CI) AOR (95% CI)
Gender
 Female 2.0* (1.6–2.3) 2.2* (1.8–2.7)
 Male
Race/Ethnicity
 Caucasian 0.9 (0.7–1.1) 0.9 (0.7–1.2)
 Non-Caucasian
School District
 District A 0.9 (0.7–1.02) 0.7 (0.6–0.9)*
 District B
 DAST-10 Score 2.0* (1.8–2.2) 1.6* (1.4–1.8)
Any past 12-months alcohol use 3.7* (3.0–4.4) 1.8* (1.4–2.3)
Any past 12-months tobacco use 3.8* (3.2–4.6) 1.3 (0.9–1.7)
Any past 12-months marijuana use 4.0* (3.4–4.9) 1.0 (0.7–1.3)
Any past 12-months illicit drug use 8.9* (6.8–11.6) 2.8* (2.0–4.0)

Note: OR: odds ratio from bivariate logistic regression analysis; AOR: adjusted odds ratio from multiple logistic regression analyses.

The AOR is the multiplicative effect of a predictor variable on the odds of being in the “any NUPM” class when all other variables in Table 4 were statistically controlled.

CI: confidence interval; DAST: Drug Abuse Screening Test.
