a

The combined race and ethnicity variable was provided by the National Opinion Research Center, University of Chicago. Respondents could self-select (1) White, non-Hispanic, (2) Black, non-Hispanic, (3) other, non-Hispanic, (4) Hispanic, (5) Asian, non-Hispanic, or (6) 2 or more other categories, non-Hispanic. Race and ethnicity were assessed in this study due to a priori hypothesis that several measures, including one assessing experiences of discrimination, would be associated.
