Note. Conditions are indicated by noun number (N1, N2, N3), with S = singular and P = plural. Semantic integration rating scale was 1 (loosely linked) to 7 (tightly linked). For semantic integration ratings and attachment, means are computed by-items and standard deviations are in parentheses. For response counts, dysfluency counts are in parentheses. Misc = Miscellaneous.
