Parallel mediation using the mediating effect of two motivations for drinking (coping and conformity/social pressure) in the relation between BPD status and number of different drinking-related problems experienced over the previous year. We controlled for participant age, race, sex, and number of drinking days over the past month. Notes: an is the effect of BPD on drinking motive dimensions; participants without BPD are coded as 0 and participants with BPD as 1; bn is effect of drinking motive dimensions on number of drinking problems; c’ is direct effect of BPD status on drinking problems; and c is the total effect of BPD status on drinking problems using partially standardized coefficients.4 * p < .05; ** p < .01; *** p < .001.
