Table 2. Influence within contests for entries that did/did not take the lead, submitted by contestants who did/did not take the lead.

Results for fixed effects from linear mixed model: Influence ~ LeaderGroup + Increment + (1|Contest/Contestant). The top row represents the baseline, entries that neither led nor were submitted by contestants who were ever leaders. The following two rows indicate additive effects relative to the baseline for nonleading entries submitted by leading contestants and leading entries submitted by leading contestants. The last row indicates the relationship between influence and performance as measured by score increment (standardized between −1 and 1).
