Note: HB: health behavior; B: unstandardized regression coefficient; SE: standard error. β: standardized regression coefficient. Step 1 assessed main effects and step 2 the interaction effect. Living with a particular social tie was represented as a dummy variable. Social tie's HB refers to the corresponding participant behavior. For the interaction, social ties’ HB and coresidence with said social tie were centered at their means. a p < .05, b p < .01.
