Study Population

The researchers aim to have the analyses be as nationally-representative as possible on certain criteria. To do so, there are goals for the number of participants belonging to 20 demographic profiles. The 20 demographic profiles will be based on sex assigned at birth (male, female), education (no college, some college +), and race/ethnicity (non-Hispanic white, non-Hispanic Black, non-Hispanic Asian, Hispanic, and non-Hispanic other). Using the 2019 American Community Survey, a nationally representative survey of adults in the United States, we have identified what proportion of 18- to 24-year-olds fall into each of the 20 demographic profiles. Taking these proportions, we will incorporate a 15% oversample of Black, Asian, and Hispanic individuals.
