Figure 3. Peer-reported, but not self-reported conscientiousness, predicts future problem drinking in men but not women.

Figure 3

Scatterplots demonstrate associations between conscientiousness and future problem drinking behavior in men (n=78) and women (n=157). Residualized change was calculated by obtaining the residuals from a regression with AUDIT baseline scores predicting AUDIT follow-up scores. Thus, residualized change scores represent the variance in follow-up AUDIT scores not predicted by baseline AUDIT. Peer-reported conscientiousness was a significant predictor of future AUDIT scores in men, whereas self-reported conscientiousness was not.
