Note: N = 371. Correlation results are presented for bivariate shame and guilt; however, the semi-partial shame and guilt variables were used to interpret analyses, as described in the text. For all drug dependence variables: 0=No, 1=Yes; Internalized Heterosexism: higher scores = more internalized heterosexism; Alcohol Severity: higher scores = greater alcohol severity. Because semi-partial correlations involve using residual values (e.g., shame with the variance for guilt partialled out), correlations of semi-partial values with non-residualized values are not statistically meaningful (i.e., N/A).
