  • Notes: Coefficients are displayed with robust standard errors in parentheses. Column 1–2 use the self-reported smoking measure, and Column 3–4 the self-reported smoking measure corrected using cotinine levels. All regressions correct for genetic relatedness among the mothers using the first four principal components of the genetic relationship matrix. +p < 0.1, *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01.
