Notes: Analysis of covariance models for drinking norms and alcohol use controlled for the baseline measure of the outcome variable in addition to participants’ sex, class year, and group (human subject pool or judicial). Reactance models controlled for baseline alcohol use in addition to participants’ sex, class year, and group. T = Time.
p < .01
p < .001; adjusted means not sharing a common superscript differ from each other at the p < .05 level after applying the Holm-Bonferroni sequential correction for multiplicity.
