Note. Only pairwise comparisons that were statistically significantly different are presented in this table (all ps ≤ .001). Comp = Comparison group; Ref = Reference group; C Am = Central American; Dom = Dominican; Mex = Mexican; PR = Puerto Rican; S Am = South American; SD = San Diego; Fruits/Veg = Fruits/Vegetables. For all models the Comparison group was coded as 1 and the Reference group was coded as 0.
