Note: Model 1 investigated the association of early life SES with decision making, controlling for demographic covariates. Model 2 added global cognition as an additional covariate. Model 3 investigated the effect of literacy and the literacy by early life SES interaction on decision making. SES = socioeconomic status.
Females are coded as 0 and males as 1
Non-White race is coded as 1 and White non-Hispanic race as 0
