RR (95% CI) RR (95% CI)
Sexual Orientation
  Heterosexual 1.00 1.00
  Gay/lesbian 0.85 (0.80, 0.90) *** 0.93 (0.86, 1.01)
  Bisexual 0.87 (0.83, 0.91) *** 0.95 (0.89, 1.01)
  Questioning 0.89 (0.87, 0.92) *** 0.93 (0.88, 0.98) **

Note. All models adjusted for gender, race/ethnicity, and grade in school and used Generalized Estimating Equations (GEE) to adjust for clustering of students within schools; we coded outside- and within-school adult support variables as 0 for 'no/not sure' and 1 for 'yes';

RR = risk ratio; CI = confidence interval;
