Note. Separate analyses were conducted for positive risk taking (PRT) and negative risk taking (NRT) as dependent variables (DV) and for each independent variable (IV). W represents the coefficient for the Wald Test of Parameter Constraints. Significant W coefficients indicate a significant difference between the unstandardized beta coefficients for positive and negative risk taking. Each analysis controlled for parent education, intellectual functioning, age, gender, and race.
