Note. Results from eight multilevel models are shown. In each model, life satisfaction from age 14 to 21 is the dependent variable. The focal predictor was grand-mean centered. The focal predictor, Piece 1, Piece 2, and the interaction between the focal predictor and each Piece were entered as the independent variables.
