Table 3.
The proportions of children whose language scores fell below −1.25 SD of the test mean (phonological awareness, semantics, grammar, discourse) or the term sample mean (pragmatics).
VPT n* = 193 | Term n* = 70 | Odds ratio (95% CI) | p | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Phonological awareness, % | 22.8 | 4.3 | 6.6 (2.0, 34.2) | .001 |
Semantics, % | 20.3 | 1.4 | 17.6 (2.8, 722.3) | <.001 |
Grammar, % | 23.4 | 2.9 | 10.3 (2.5, 89.3) | <.001 |
Discourse, % | 30.1 | 5.7 | 7.1 (2.5, 27.9) | <.001 |
Pragmatics, % | 27.8 | 14.6 | 2.3 (1.0, 6.0) | .04 |
Some sample sizes are less than the total sample due to missing data.
