Strange, right? Take a look at figure 4 here: https://jamanetwork.com/journals/jamapsychiatry/fullarticle/... This is as in the abstract: 1. drinks/day declined in both groups and somewhat more in the treatment group but wasn't statistically significant
2. number of drinks/day basically wasn't different at all
3. drinks/drinking day didn't change in the placebo group but did decline in the treatment group (These are all actually regression coefficients computed on non-random samples but nevermind.) Somehow it seems like what's happening is that 3 rises to statistical significance even though 1 doesn't. |
