Note. B refers to unstandardized effects, SE refers to the standard errors of these effects, and β refers to the standardized effect. Between student variance for mastery and performance was 0.576** and 1.352**. Within student variance was 0.259** and 0.458**
* p < .05; ** p < .01 (all tested one-sided)
