p<.05. Interaction Effect column is the regression coefficient for the multiplicative term between Early Pubertal Timing and the Grade 7 assessment. Models also include covariates for maternal age at menarche, parent education, & family income. All predictors were entered simultaneously and the focal test of the accentuation hypothesis is the Interaction effect and the column of p-values for that interaction.
