Number of self-control strategies used predicting practice time and SAT scores for Study 1.
Study 1 practice time (panel a) and SAT score (panel b) as a function of the number of self-control strategies used. Means are adjusted for covariates: PSAT scores, gender, ethnicity, and fee waiver status. Shading indicates 95% confidence intervals.

Study 1 practice time mediating the relationship between number of self-control strategies and SAT scores.
Study 1 practice time mediates the relationship between the number of self-control strategies and SAT scores. B represents the unstandardized beta coefficient (standardized beta coefficients in parentheses). Covariates include the squared strategic self-control term, students’ PSAT scores, gender, fee waiver status, and ethnicity. ***p < .001.
