Note. In EDS, when the participants responded “yes” to the DF item, they are asked whether race/ethnicity attributed (AER) to the discriminative experience: “how sure are you that this happened because of your race?”. Participants responded the AER item using a four-point scale (1 = not at all, 2 = not very sure, 3 = somewhat sure, 4 = very sure). Total % indicates the percentage of reported the occurrence of the item. Participant % indicates the percentage of participants reported at least one occurrence of the item.
