Means, Effect Sizes, and Univariate F-Test Results for Variables From Experiment 1 for Alcohol-Exposed Children With Fetal Alcohol Syndrome (FAS) andWithout (PEA)
| Variable | FAS M (SD) | PEA M (SD) | ESa | F | p |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| CLR | 90.44 (13.17) | 99.48 (11.09) | 0.74 | 6.39 | 0.02 |
| PR | 95.44 (12.80) | 102.66 (12.21) | 0.58 | 3.73 | 0.06 |
| ERR | 90.72 (14.75) | 99.00 (11.00) | 0.64 | 4.83 | 0.03 |
| PE | 94.89 (13.83) | 102.48 (12.46) | 0.58 | 3.79 | 0.06 |
| NPE | 89.28 (14.08) | 95.93 (10.28) | 0.54 | 3.50 | 0.07 |
| WCST compositeb | 92.20 (12.76) | 100.38 (10.79) | 0.69 | 5.54 | 0.02 |
| FSIQ–WCST | −6.87 (19.08) | −9.38 (11.94) | 0.16 | 0.31 | 0.58 |
All scores are standard scores with a mean of 100 and a standard deviation of 15 and higher scores reflect better performance.
Effect sizes are Cohen’s d with small effects > 0.2, medium effects > 0.5, and large effects > 0.8.
WCST composite is an average of CLR, PR, and ERR.
