across the two friends, and the scale of 1–3 at age 11 (1=never, 2=sometimes, 3=very often) was re-scored according to the corresponding levels of the 1–5 scale used at the other ages (1=never, 2=once in a while, 3=sometimes,4=fairly often, 5=very often) (i.e., 1 = 1, 2 = 3, 3 = 5). Internal consistency ranged from .76 to .83. Peer deviance was averaged within time frame.
