The coefficient column corresponds to the symbols of Fig. 2. Standard errors (SE) and p values are displayed for the unstandardized coefficients. Bolded values are statistically significant p < 0.05.

Std = standardized with respect to X and Y, Unstd = unstandardized, SNI = social network involvement, ISS = perceived interpersonal social support, PAS = perceived alcohol stigma, AUD = alcohol use disorder. Internalizing disorders (INT) included major depression, bipolar I and II, dysthymia, social phobia, specific phobia, generalized anxiety disorder, and post-traumatic stress disorder.
