Note: Estimate is the parameter estimate for the within-pair effect and 95% CI the 95% confidence interval around it, obtained by means of the cluster-robust sandwich estimator of standard errors in svyglm. Parameter estimates are adjusted for any effects of sex and zygosity. In addition, estimates for each twin-difference drinking measure are adjusted for effects of the other. “Effects of Adolescent Drinking” give associations between task performance measures and cumulative drinking through the age-20 assessment whereas “Effects of Change in Drinking” give associations for the change in drinking between the age-20 and age-29 assessments and the same performance measures.
