Note: Table values are multinomial logistic regression coefficients with robust standard errors in parentheses. Sample sizes are 981 (no unions), 3,672 (1 union intact), 1,913 (1 union disruption), and 1,199 (2+ union disruptions). Data are from Add Health and are weighted to be nationally representative.
