As shown in Table 2b, both dichotomous and density measures were significantly associated with likelihood of AUD. That is, irrespective of whether FH is evaluated as a dichotomous or a density measure, it is associated with increased odds of AUD. Further, FHDrPSND–AUDMaxSxCnt (OR=20.45) and FHFirst–AUDDx (OR=2.00) presented the most robust associations among density and dichotomous measures respectively. Importantly, all density measures yielded higher coefficients and odds ratios thereby presenting improved predictive value over dichotomous measures.
