! Interpret data with caution. Estimate is unstable because the standard error represents more than 30 percent of the estimate.
‡ Reporting standards are not met.
¹ Not all of the analysis population of on-time HSLS graduates had a school catalog collected from their high school. No catalogs were collected for 11.2% of the sample; these students were not included in this table.
NOTE: The statistics in this table are expressed as a characteristic of students, using the transcript collection weight, so that the figure can be compared with the population of students that took and earned credit in a family consumer science course. Students in the analysis required a complete set of transcripts which is defined by a transcript from last attended school, course credit in each year of attendance, and a minimum of 16 earned credits. For state-representative data, students in the analysis attended school in the same state throughout high school and also the same type of high school (public/Catholic/other private).
NOTE: W3HSTRANS weight was used for this crosstabulation.
