TABLE 2.
Descriptive (M, SD) and statistical data on coarse coding and comprehension measures for two participant groups
| RHD (N = 32) | NBD (N = 38) | |
|---|---|---|
| Coarse Coding measure (maximum = 16) | ||
| Short ISIa | 15.53 (0.72) | 15.82 (0.39) |
| Long ISIb | 15.31 (0.78) | 15.76 (0.43) |
| DCT-Implied question accuracy (maximum = 20)c | 16.00 (2.21) | 17.10 (2.06) |
| High-level Inference accuracy (maximum = 18)d | 9.47 (3.20) | 12.34 (3.79) |
RHD = right-hemisphere-damaged. NBD = non-brain-damaged. ISI = Interstimulusinterval condition. DCT = Discoursecomprehension test (Brookshire & Nicholas, 1993).
