Note. In each regression, control variables (race/ethnicity, education, and employment, intake values of the dependent variable and the discharge outcome, and program treatment orientation) were entered in Step 1; patient status, perceptions of treatment, and discharge outcomes were entered in Step 2. Entries in the table are standardized beta coefficients; entries in bold identify independent predictors. Sample sizes for regressions ranged from 1,714 to 2,285 due to missing data.
