Multiple regression with quadratic assignment procedure (MRQAP) was used to predict modified Dictator Game point allocation based on individual difference and network variables. Independent variables eliminated from the Year 9 model due to nonsignificance were IRI EC receiving (b = .01, p = .465), IRI PT receiving (b = .01, p = .471), best friends receiving (b = .07, p = .438), Mach giving (b = −.02, p = .429), best friends giving (b = −.27, p = .339), Duration 1 (b = −.40, p = .336), IRI PT giving (b = −.06, p = .275), FASII receiving (b = −.08, p = .262), SNQ reciprocation (b = .90, p = .252), Mach receiving (b = −.09, p = .082), and FASII giving (b = −.33, p = .054). Due to low variance, Duration 2 variables were not entered into the model. Independent variables eliminated from the Year 10 model were Mach giving (b = .00, p = .485), IRI EC receiving (b = .00, p = .468), best friends giving (b = .05, p = .470), FASII giving (b = .02, p = .445), IRI PT giving (b = −.09, p = .131), IRI EC giving (b = .04, p = .207), Duration 2 receiving (b = .29, p = .121), best friends receiving (b = −.19, p = .150), Duration 2 giving (b = −.65, p = .091), IRI PT receiving (b = .02, p = .074), FASII receiving (b = −.12, p = .059), and Mach receiving (b = .01, p = .091). Independent variables eliminated from the Year 11A model were IRI EC receiving (b = −.01, p = .446), IRI EC giving (b = −.02, p = .437), FASII giving (b = .06, p = .403), best friends giving (b = .06, p = .424), FASII receiving (b = −.10, p = .307), best friends receiving (b = −.13, p = .313), IRI PT giving (b = −.08, p = .183), Mach giving (b = −.02, p = .328), IRI PT receiving (b = −.11, p = .063), Mach receiving (b = −.03, p = .182), and Duration 1 (b = −1.26, p = .072). Due to low variance, Duration 2 variables were not entered into the model. Independent variables eliminated from the Year 11B model were FASII receiving (b = −.02, p = .461), IRI EC giving (b = .02, p = .457), Mach giving (b = .01, p = .405), FASII giving (b = −.06, p = .382), IRI PT giving (b = −.04, p = .310), Mach receiving (b = −.01, p = .317), IRI EC receiving (b = .05, p = .276), best friends receiving (b = −.18, p = .261), best friends giving (b = −.39, p = .156), IRI PT receiving (b = −.07, p = .076), and Duration 1 (b = −2.18, p = .090). Due to low variance, Duration 2 variables were not entered into the model. SNQ = Social Network Questionnaire; IRI PT = interpersonal reactivity index perspective‐taking; EC = empathic concern; FASII = family Affluence Scale.
