- Notes: BRFSS = Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System Surveys.
- SE = standard error.
- (a) Weighted unadjusted percents are presented to reflect the complex sampling design of Behavioral Risk Factor Surveillance System (BRFSS) 2001-2006.
- (b) N = 1,323,758. This is the sample used for all analyses, except as noted.
- (c) N = 1,050,573. Includes observations for 2001-2005 only due to change in definition of binge drinking in 2006.
- (d) Data represent chi-square statistics.
- *** Age group has a statistically significant association with all four column variables (Overall chi-square df = 3, p < .001, for each column variable).
