T2ALCOUT = alcohol outcomes at Time 2 (max drinks 6 mos, most drinks during heaviest drinking week 6 mos, alcohol problems during followup); LR = SRE score (higher drinks needed for effects = lower LR per drink); PEER = perceived drinking status, frequency, and quantities of peers; EXPECT = scores on AEQ scales of global positive, social behavior, sex enhancement, and relaxation with alcohol; and COPE = scores on 3 parcels composed of 2 items each from the 6-item Drinking to Cope scale. In this Table, F indicates correlations among relevant variables for females, and M refers to correlations for males.
