As adding pragmatic language did not improve the model in the control group, the model that includes only structural language was reported and interpreted.

Note: NSCT group = 48 for anxiety, affective, oppositional defiant, attention deficit, and social-emotional; N= 29 for pervasive developmental. N control group = 58 for anxiety, affective, oppositional defiant, attention deficit, and social-emotional; N= 36 for pervasive developmental.
