Note. Reported are (a) the significances pi for increased fit by adding predictors of initial level and age-related changes of IAT scores and the unstandardized initial regression coefficients bi with the Level 1 predictors; (b) wave is centered at the age of 16. Anxiety was used as predictor at Level 2 (individual) and extraversion in classroom was used as predictor at Level 3 (classroom).
