Models all also included a fixed effect variable for hospitals to account for hospital-level systematic differences in care. —, not applicable.

^aODD adjusted and restricted to ages 12–19 y as specified.

^bODD adjusted.

^cReference groups: girls, ages 12–15 y, white.

^dP < .001.

^eP < .01.

^fVariable not included for this measure because relationships were not statistically significant in the bivariate analysis.

^gNot included in hypothesis testing because of no variation in category (performance either 100 or 0).

^hP < .05.
