  1. Note. All models adjust for hour of interview. June is the reference category for all models
  2. aWithin the BAC category of ≥0.10 g/dL, 74% of participants in both June and July recorded a BAC of ≥0.12 g/dL and 28% (June) to 32% (July) had a BAC of ≥0.15 g/dL
  3. M = Mean
  4. SE = Standard error
  5. 95% CI = 95% confidence interval
  6. β = Beta-weight
