aVariables of the R-PAS (Meyer et al., 2011), all controlled for R, either inherently or explicitly.

bModeled Reference Sample (Meyer et al., 2011).

cZ-scores were computed by subtracting the Reference sample means (controlled for R) from our means (controlled for R), and dividing by the standard deviations of the reference sample means (controlled for R). Figures are reported with maximum three digits, for a meaningful level of accuracy.

dReference sample means and standard deviations controlled for R provided for us by Greg Meyer, February 19, 2021.
