Numbers in parentheses report the 95% confidence interval. Significance tests equality of coefficients, that is, ln(OS/SS) = 0. ; ; ; . Significant results are in boldface. All models include adjustments for demographic control variables: age, sex, race, education (at Wave IV), income (at Wave IV), and parent education and income. Coefficients report odds ratios except as noted.
