Note. The pattern of findings for the specific indirect effects were the same when consumption was included as a covariate. However, for the third indirect effect (Acting with awareness → Social anxiety symptoms → Drinking to cope with social anxiety → Drinking problems), the 95% bias-corrected confidence interval crossed zero (Estimate = −.10, SE = .08, 95% CI [−.37, .001], 90% CI [−.31, −.01], PM = .10).
