Table 1: Mean Target-fixation Proportions (with Standard Deviations) in CP and Consonant-MP Trials.
Included are 24-month-olds, 30-month-olds, and adults (with the grand mean for children overall in row 3 in bold, italicized font). The rightmost 2 columns list the percentage of participants looking less to the deebo in MP trials than CP trials (showing an MP effect) and the percentage looking less than 50% of the time in MP trials (using a mutual exclusivity, ME, strategy).
Correct pronunciation | Consonant MP | % Showing MP Effect | % Using ME Strategy | |

24 months | 65.5% (16.2%) | 69.9% (14.3%) | 43.8% (14/32) | 6.3% (2/32) |
30 months | 66.8% (17.7%) | 69.3% (17.2%) | 40.6% (13/32) | 15.6% (5/32) |
