From the abstract of the actual study:

- "Cool" => "Pseudomature behavior—ranging from minor delinquency to precocious romantic involvement"

- "Lose" => "Early adolescent pseudomature behavior predicted long-term difficulties in close relationships, as well as significant problems with alcohol and substance use, and elevated levels of criminal behavior."
