  1. aSpearman correlation for data that are not normally distributed used for these variables.
  2. bMEIM: multigroup ethnic identity measure.
  3. cMultivariate controlling for demographics correlated with MEIM in bivariate analyses (age and education).
  4. dCorrelation is significant after applying the Holm–Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons.
