a

Consists of students that reported past year cannabis use. CUDIT-R Risk groups include dichotomous representation of Low (0–7), Hazardous (8–11) and High (12+) Risk groups where Hazardous and High Risk groups are combined.

b

Degrees of freedom (df) account for test of equality of variances (using Satterthwaite when equality of variances assumption is violated); therefore, some df include fractional values.
