  • * The data for this analysis were collected from October 17, 2018 through December 31, 2020.

  • P values based on χ2 tests of independence for those screened in person versus remotely.

  • Participants who selected White and an additional race category were grouped with the non-White category they selected. We made this decision due to the variable “race” serving as a proxy for racism.43
