“…Finally, The Benjamini-Hochberg procedure (Thissen, Steinberg, & Kuang, 2002) was used to correct for multiple testing in all analyses. First, to establish whether the boys in this sample demonstrated significant individual differences in change in pubertal development (pubertal status and tempo), a linear LGCM was conducted with pubertal scores from ages 11-13, and centered at 11 years.…”

Most research linking early pubertal development to substance use has focused on the effects of pubertal timing (age at which a certain stage of pubertal development is reached or pubertal status at a particular age-related to the maturation disparity hypothesis), but little research has focused on pubertal tempo (rate of growth through pubertal stages-related to the maturation compression hypothesis). However, both timing and tempo have not only been identified as important components of pubertal development, with different predictors, but have also been shown to be independently associated with other adolescent psychopathologies. Using latent growth-curve modeling, this study examined how pubertal status at age 12 and pubertal tempo (between 11 and 13 years) related to substance use from 15 to 16 years in boys from low socioeconomic backgrounds (N = 871). Results showed that both pubertal status at age 12 and tempo were significant predictors of increased levels of substance use and problems in mid to late adolescence. In an attempt to identify mechanisms that may explain the association between pubertal development and substance use it was found that sensation seeking partially mediated the association between pubertal status at age 12 and substance use behaviors. Impulse control was found to moderate the association sensation seeking had with marijuana use frequency, with high Correspondence concerning this article should be addressed to Natalie Castellanos-Ryan, Centre de recherche du CHU Ste-Justine, Université de Montréal, 3175 Chemin de la Côte Sainte-Catherine, Montréal, H3T 1C5, Canada. natalie.castellanos.ryan@umontreal.ca.

These findings highlight the importance of considering multiple sources of individual variability in the pubertal development of boys and provide support for both the maturational disparity and compression hypotheses. Keywordsadolescence; puberty; substance use; impulsivity; sensation seekingAdolescence is an important developmental period for the onset of substance use and misuse, with some considering exploratory drug use as normative during this period (e.g., Shedler & Block, 1990). Some Canadian statistics show that 42% of adolescents attending Grades 9 through 11 (or 3-5 of high school) have used cannabis in the last year, and by Grade 11, 86% of them were drinking alcohol (Dubé et al., 2009). Similarly, epidemiologic studies in the United States show that up to 50% of high school students report binge drinking, and around 25% report having tried an illicit substance (Office of National Statistics, 2008; U.S. Department of Health and Human Services, 2007). Youth substance use is also prevalent in Europe, with almost half of all young people in the United Kingdom trying an illegal drug by the age of 16 years and around one third of adolescents ...

“…To avoid the declaration of false positive parameters (correlations and F values of GLM), given the large number of contrasts analysed, the Benjamini-Hochberg procedure (Benjamini and Hochberg, 1995) was carried out to correct the corresponding p values (with a false discovery rate of 5%). This methodology is an efficient way of controlling the false discovery rate in multiple testing, as it is more powerful than the classical Bonferroni correction (Thissen et al, 2002). Table 1 includes descriptive statistics for ET and HR measurements in the competition phase and intervals and for the variable PP.…”

The aims of this study were, first, to evaluate eye temperature (ET) with infrared thermography and heart rate (HR) to measure stress in horses during show jumping competitions and their relationship with competition results, and second, to evaluate the influence of different extrinsic and intrinsic factors of the horse on the stress measurements analysed. One hundred and seventy-three Spanish Sport Horses were analysed for ET and HR, and these measurements were taken 3 h before the competition, just after and 3 h after it. Two interval measurements were also assessed for each parameter. Positive significant correlations were found between ET and HR, measured before (r = 0.23), just after competition (r = 0.28) and for the later interval (r = 0.26), whereas negative correlations with competition results were found only for ET when measured just after competing (r =− 0.25). Two intrinsic factors (genetic line and age) and no extrinsic factors showed significant differences for ET, whereas one intrinsic factor (age) and two extrinsic factors (journey duration and number of training hours) showed significant differences for HR. The marginal means showed significantly higher ET values for the Anglo-Arab genetic line and for 5-year-old animals. HR values were significantly higher for 4-year-old animals, for horses which had travelled 4 to 6 h and for horses that had 3 to 6 h of daily training. This study suggests that, although ET and HR seemed to share a similar physiological basis, the factors that most influenced each parameter were different. Finally, ET seems to be a suitable tool for assessing stress during show jumping competitions in horses.

“…So for n = 18, the p value was set at 19/36 X.05 = .026. This is a less conservative procedure with greater power than the Bonferroni correction (Thissen, Steinberg, & Kuang, 2002). A power analysis showed that for our 3 group design with 133 cases and an average of 44 cases per group, an alpha value of .026 permitted the detection effect sizes of .7 with a power of .8.…”
