Data are weighted to the study population. Comparisons of blacks, Hispanics, and Asian/Pacific Islanders with whites were made on the following characteristics: Percentages of younger adults and older adults, men, less than HS graduate and college graduate, and suffering and thriving financially.

b

Total N = 26,304, but 78 people were missing data for sex and 203 were missing data for education.

c

Differs from reference group at p < 0.001.

d

Differs from reference group at p < 0.01.

HS = high school; wtd = weighted.
