(.71)
7. AUC (DD) .10 .10 .20 −.22 −.60 −.46
(−.57) (−.42)

(−.53) (−.41) (.93)

Note. The numbers in parentheses are partial correlation coefficients with the demographics controlled for. The numbers in bold indicate significant correlations (p < .05). TWD = texting while driving. AUC = Area under the Curve. DD = delay discounting. PD = probability discounting.
