Regressions using Personal Beliefs, Peer Norms, and Parent Norms to Predict Current and Future Substance Use

Current Substance Use± B β t Effect Size

 Parent Norms .00 .00 .00 .00

Note: Peer Norms = Perceived peer beliefs about substance use; Parent Norms = Perceived parent beliefs about substance use; Effect size refers to the squared semi-partial correlation and was interpreted as follows: 0.10 to 0.30 small effect, 0.31 to 0.50 medium effect, and 0.51 to 0.80 large effect.
