Values are odds ratio (95% CI). Each model includes the following covariates: age, race, education, poverty/income ratio, region of country, childhood urbanicity, and sex. The Taylor series estimation method was used to estimate sampling errors, accounting for the stratified, clustered sampling design; weights were applied to all models to adjust for differential probabilities of selection, non-response and differences between the sample and 2000 US census population estimates.
*Significant difference at p<0.05.
†95% CI could not be estimated because of no serious suicide attempts in households with firearms.
