354 BASDA Administration: Participants should be given forms for <strong>the</strong>ir five closest<br />

355 friends plus any living p<strong>are</strong>nts and siblings. The closest five friends <strong>are</strong> numbered ‘‘Per-<br />

356 son#1’’–‘‘Person #5’’ with #1 being <strong>the</strong> closest friend, #2 being <strong>the</strong> second closest friend,<br />

357 and so on and so forth. The forms for <strong>the</strong> siblings should be completed sequentially,<br />

358 starting with <strong>the</strong> sibling closest in age and finishing with <strong>the</strong> sibling fur<strong>the</strong>st in age.<br />

359 Scoring: All scaled responses should be coded so that <strong>the</strong> smallest value is coded as 1<br />

360 and <strong>the</strong> subsequent values increase by 1. Example: For question #1, never=1, Monthly or<br />

361 Less=2, 2–49month=3, 2–39/week=4, and 4 or more times/week=5.<br />

362 Focus scores:<br />

363 Gambling frequency=Question 5; Gambling expenditure=Question 6 (a log trans-<br />

364 formation may be required); alcohol use=composite <strong>of</strong> Questions 1–3; and tobacco<br />

365 use=Question 4<br />

366 Experimenters may wish to use a composite score for <strong>the</strong> five closest friends (as done in<br />

367 <strong>the</strong> current study). If doing so, internal reliabilities <strong>can</strong> be calculated by treating <strong>the</strong> five<br />

368 closest friends’ responses for each activity as ‘‘items.’’ It is recommended that data only be<br />
