Age was centered by its minimum (approximately 14.8 years old), so that mean effects for friend drug use, friend aggression, and parental support reflect effects at age 14.8, and interactions reflect differences per-year after that age. The main effect of age (as a nonparametric trend) was included in the model but not shown here.
