lot less. Rule consistency was measured with a binary response to the question, `Was your mother/father pretty consistent about rules or would she/he insist upon a rule one day and forget about it the next'? Closeness was measured on a 4-point scale ranging from very close, somewhat close, not very close, to not at all close. Because few respondents reported that they were not at all close to their mother/father, we modeled closeness as a 3-level variable; very close, somewhat close and not very/not at all close.
