Note. Scales ranged from 0 (e.g., none or not at all) to 6 (e.g., extremely), except estimated hours spent with sister in previous week. Estimates of outcomes were included only if matched with a Little Sister who reported at least 6 of her events during Big Sister Week. Little Sisters: n = 41 (Revelations), n = 39 (follow-up); estimates include only Little Sisters who had one Big Sister. Big Sisters: n = 33 (Revelations), n = 30 (follow-up). In the lower half of the table, bold type represents effects that were significant at p < .05 or marginally significant at p ≤ .10.
