Note. The same superscripts indicate significant differences at the p<.05 level. Bonferroni post-hoc comparisons were used to minimize Type 1 error. Estimated marginal means adjusted for the effects of cohort, sexual identity, sex, and race/ethnicity are reported. Data are censored at age 8. See supplemental Table S2 for uncensored results. Race=Race/ethnicity.
