Step 1 consisted of ethnicity (dummy coded White-Korean and White-Chinese/Taiwanese contrasts), ethnic identity, global self-esteem, and CSE factors. Step 2 was designed to test whether the association between global self-esteem and drinking varied across ethnicities, with two-way product terms between the dummy-coded ethnicity variables and global self-esteem. Step 3 was designed to test whether the association between CSE and drinking varied across ethnicities, after accounting for the interactions with global self-esteem, with two-way products between the two dummy coded ethnicity variables and the four CSE factors.
