Participants were categorized by reporting pattern into one of four groups: (a) endorsed behaviorally defined CPA but not checklist items, (b) endorsed checklist items but not behaviorally defined CPA, (c) endorsed both question types, and (d) did not endorse either. Analyses investigating this relationship were completed two ways. Tetrachoric correlations and differences in prevalence of risk factor by pattern of CPA reporting grouping were compared across EA and AA women separately. Differences in pattern of CPA reporting between EA and AA women in prevalence of risk factors for AUD were examined using factorial logistic regression analyses to test the association between CPA question reporting pattern, race, and AUD risk factors (maternal alcohol problems, paternal alcohol problems, MDD, CD, regular smoking, cannabis dependence, and CSA). Dummy variables were used to represent behavioral questions only, checklist items only, and behavioral-plus-checklist endorsement groups; participants who did not endorse any questions assessing CPA served as the reference group. Chi-square tests of association were conducted to test for the interaction of CPA endorsement and race in the association with AUD risk factors.
