Note. CI = confidence interval; OR = odds ratio. Regressions are adjusted for sample weights to be nationally representative of the US household population. Employment status and age were collinear, so we excluded employment status from these models.

a

Unadjusted.

b

Adjusted for age + gender + race + education level.

c

Adjusted for model 2 + household income + home type + marital status.
