Note. Drug use frequency variables included response options never, once or twice, monthly, weekly, daily/or almost daily (coded 0 to 4, respectively, for analyses). Other drugs (cocaine, methamphetamine, street opioids, hallucinogens, and inhalants) were combined into yes to any versus no due to lower frequency. For the three prescription drugs, participants were instructed to answer based on misuse, “to get high, or taking them when they were prescribed to someone else, or taking more than what was prescribed to you.” Scores ≥2 on the CRAFFT represent high-risk substance use.

a

p < .01 for DD versus no DD

b

p < .001 for DD versus no DD

c

p<.05 for High Frequency DD versus Lower Frequency DD.
