Note: Innovation refers to the emergence of novel influences over time. Unstandardized coefficients are shown. Values in parentheses are standard errors. τ is a random effect that represents the estimated between-studies standard deviation in the true effect size (i.e., correcting for sampling variance). The primary model includes all data and weights. Alternate Model 1 does not include the Twins Early Development Study (TEDS) data. Alternate Model 2 does not weight estimates by their precision.
