Note: Sample sizes for Cronbach a calculations differ from the samp e sizes for descriptive statistics because listwise deletion was used for reliability estimates, whereas descriptive statistics were based on subscale scores, which were calculated as long as 50% of items needed to compute a subscale score were non-missing.
