Linear regression analysis of follow-up survey data; Table 1 reports, for example, SDS Self-Regulation Beta .8569, Sig T .02, and vocational classes Sig T .41. R2 from regression is not treated as an effect size; no standardized effect size is printed.

"The regression analysis with hourly pay rate as the dependent variable and IQ, self -determination subscale scores, and the number of voca tional education classes in which students were enrolled during high school as independent vari ables yielded an R 2 of .81. Variables contributing significantly to the variance in the dependent variable included IQ, psychological empowerment, self-realization, and self -regulation subscale scores."
