Note. In Panel B all Cohen ds significant unless marked by non-significantns; W = wave, LC = latent class, ➔ reflects that the W1 to W2 to W3 columns in Panel A reflect classes of transitions across the 3 waves, Tran = transition pattern, AP = accurate perception, NU = non-user, U = user, MP = misperception, + = overestimation consistent with adolescents' own initiation of SU and - = under estimation consistent with the adolescents' own non-use, freq = frequency, quan = quantity. In Panel A, class name-class name-class name under LC (W1-W2-W3) refers to latent classes at each wave. For Panel B, Tran # reflects the transition patterns that were combined and then compared (V) For instance, the first one, 7+8+12 means that Transition Pattern numbers 7, 8, and 12 from the last column in panel A were combined and then compared to Transition patterns 2 and 4.
