I have a question on this KA passage:

It mentioned this before:
Table 111 outlines the correlation between social context and positive drug test in arrestees. The odds ratio describes how much more likely a positive cocaine/opiate urinalysis becomes when the social control factor is increased.
Table 111

High school graduate / GED 1.0850
The question is:
According to the data in Table 1, which factor has the highest probability of testing positive for cocaine or opiates?
Please choose from one of the following options.
