Several items of the DRSP are not included in this analysis due to their behavioral nature, which would be expected to overlap with the impairment outcome. Predictors are standardized using the full sample; therefore, estimates can be interpreted as the impact of a one standard-deviation increase in the predictor on premenstrual elevation of the outcome (e.g., Estimate = .052 can be interpreted as meaning that a one standard deviation increase in the predictor is associated with a 5.2% greater premenstrual elevation of impairment over one’s follicular baseline).

Several items of the DRSP are not included in this analysis due to their behavioral nature, which would be expected to cause substantial overlap with the impairment outcome. Predictors are standardized using the full sample; therefore, estimates can be interpreted as the impact of a one standard-deviation increase in the predictor on premenstrual elevation of the outcome (e.g., Estimate = .092 can be interpreted as meaning that a one standard deviation increase in the predictor is associated with a 9.2% greater premenstrual elevation of impairment).
