1

Age was included as a covariate

2

Gender was included as a covariate, MMPI-2 scale means were constrained to the population mean (i.e., M = 50) to correct for potential ascertainment bias

a

Alcohol Dependence Diagnosis represented a significant covariate for all scales except Si, Dx = Diagnosis.
