*Adjusted probabilities were estimated with basic economic security at home, free schooling, free school meals, and all other covariates at observed values. Not experiencing positive parenting or parental monitoring and supervision was considered to be equivalent to the sample mean score of these factors (24.51 for positive parenting and 19.53 for parental monitoring and supervision). Experiencing these protective factors was considered to be equivalent to experiencing the maximum score of these factors (32.00 for positive parenting and 24.00 for parental monitoring and supervision).
