Note: Standard errors in parentheses: Robust standard errors are reported with PE, and standard errors estimated using the Delta-method are reported with the ME. Year fixed effects included but not reported. Survey data were collected from four high schools in one Los Angeles neighborhood from 2010 to 2013. ME = average marginal effect; PE = parameter estimate.
