Heterogeneity in Heroin Effects

Outcome:	Heroin Deaths per 100,000
By Subgroup:	Age Group			Gender		Race		Education
	Ages 0–24	Ages 25–64	Ages 65+	Female	Male	White	Non-White	HS degree or less	More than HS
	(1)	(2)	(3)	(4)	(5)	(6)	(7)	(8)	(9)
Initial OxyContin (3 Year Effect)	1.159** (0.469)	3.935** (1.752)	0.191 (0.307)	0.864* (0.459)	4.164** (1.768)	2.353** (0.953)	1.812 (1.315)	3.123 (2.105)	2.411*** (0.864)
Mean of Dep. Variable (2008–09):	0.490	1.670	0.064	0.375	1.769	1.193	0.810	1.980	0.595

Notes: Standard errors in parentheses adjusted for clustering at the state-level. State fixed effects and year fixed effects and the full set of covariates are included in all specifications. Each model also includes a linear trend interacted with initial nonmedical OxyContin misuse as well as a post-2011 indicator interacted with initial nonmedical OxyContin misuse. Finally, a separate post-2011 linear trend interacted with initial nonmedical OxyContin misuse is also included. We report the 3 year post-2011 effect of the initial OxyContin variable. Regressions are weighted by population. Years 2008–2013 are used. Columns 8 and 9 include only individuals ages 25+ to exclude those without completed education.
