Notes: LR = level of response, based on the Self-Report of the Effects of Alcohol score (higher drinks needed for effects = lower LR per drink); ALCOUT = alcohol outcomes; PEER = perceived drinking status, frequency, and quantities of peers; EXPECT = scores in subscales of global positive, social behavior, sexual enhancement, and relaxation with alcohol; and COPE = scores on three parcels composed of two items each from the six-item Drinking to Cope scale.
