Multivariable Multinomial Logistic Regression Associations between Total Number of Alcohol Use Reason/Context Endorsements and Drinking Category among U.S. 12th Grade Alcohol Users, 2005–2016

Model 1a Model 2b

Notes: N (unweighted) = 16,902. ARR = adjusted relative risk ratio; CI = confidence interval. Models controlled for total reasons and contexts simultaneously, as well as covariates listed in Table 1 (estimates for covariates not shown).

a

Model 1 results use 5–9 drinks as the base class.

b

Model 2 results use 15+ drinks as the base class to enable comparison of the likelihoods of 10–14 versus 15+ drinks by reason/context endorsement.
