Race/ethnicity was based on participants’ self-report (0 = White, 45%; 1 = Black). We controlled for cohort (youngest cohort = 0, 51%; oldest = 1) and parental socioeconomic status (SES), which was based on the Hollingshead’s Index of Social Status from primary caretaker data at the first follow-up assessment [32]. The SES scores ranged from 6 to 66 (M = 35.6, SD = 13.7).
