Note.

a

Preschool Language Scale-4th ed., Expressive Communication scale. Standard scores with M = 100; SD = 15

b

Group (T-C) is the difference between treatment and control groups in intercepts

c

Time (T-C) is the difference between treatment and control groups in slope means (the time*group interaction coefficient)

d

Teacher Rating of Oral Language and Literacy. Raw scores on a 4-point Likert scale (1 = never, limited; 4 = often, proficient)
