Abbreviations: NO2, nitrogen dioxide; NOx, nitrogen oxides; OR, odds ratio; PM2.5, particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter of less than 2.5 μm; PM10, particulate matter with aerodynamic diameter of less than 10 μm.
Indicates association with the top quartile of the annualized mean of ambient air pollutants across the top 3 locations where participants spend their time. Includes participants with full data in model 6 (n = 1705). Analyses account for the nonindependence of twin observations.
P < .001.
P < .05.
Includes family socioeconomic status, family psychiatric history, and maternal psychosis.
Includes adolescent smoking, cannabis dependence, and alcohol dependence.
P < .01.
Includes neighborhood socioeconomic status, neighborhood crime rates, social cohesion, and neighborhood disorder.
P > .05 and P < .10.
