Note. Data are from the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent to Adult Health (Add Health) Waves III and IV. Bivariate correlations included Pearson’s and point-biserial depending on the nature of the variables. MODBS = Muscularity-oriented disordered behaviors. PES = performance-enhancing substances. Light grey and *p < .05, and dark grey and **p < .01.
