* Estimates for 8th–12th grades combined are calculated by AEDS using the MTF public-use data.
¹ The question was asked of only about half the 8th and 10th grade sample for 1991–1996. It was asked of the full sample for 1997–2007.
² The question was asked of about one third of the 12th grade sample for 1991–2007.
