N=248 total group descriptions and wall posts. Ns for the main categories (e.g., “Social context of drinking”) are sums of any responses in that category, minus any duplicates (e.g., a post that was coded as both bars and partying). Note that main categories add to less than 248 because some wall posts could not be coded into any of the categories presented.
