Note. Each cell was a separate multilevel model with time of assessment at level 1 and individual at level 2. In each regression equation, the outcome variable (standardized with M = 0 and SD = 1) was regressed on covariates, engagement in each of the 16 campaign activities (no, yes), time (t2 vs. t1), and the cross-level interaction of time with a campaign activity (one campaign activity at a time). Covariates included age (continuous), sex (female, male), income (lower, higher), marital status (unmarried, married or in a relationship), religious status (not religious, religious), frequency of religious service attendance (continuous), and war survivor status (not a survivor of war, survivor of war). Coefficients are interpreted as, holding all covariates and engagement in other campaign activities equal, engaging in the specific campaign activity of interest is associated with B standard deviation increase in the outcome. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.0031 (0.05/16 which is the Bonferroni adjustment for 16 tests on the same outcome).
