However, the interaction between both risk and protective factors on early initiation of substance use is not well studied. Therefore, this cross sectional study used two different types of modeling to examine these associations, the multivariate regression analysis and multiple correspondence analysis (MCA). The MCA allows for testing of interdependence between risk factors and protective factors...
