Spearman correlations for tile manipulation and word forming variables with the number of words formed

Variable	Outcome	ρ	p
# of tiles per word 1st	# of words 1st	−0.84	7.18e−06
# of tiles per word 3rd	# of words 3rd	−0.84	5.17e−05
Mean time on tile 1st	# of words 1st	−0.47	0.04
Mean time on tile 3rd	# of words 3rd	−0.80	1.96e−04
Distance ratio to tile 1st	# of words 3rd	−0.32	0.191
Distance ratio to tile 3rd	# of words 3rd	−0.6	0.014

Data are reported for change in variables from first to third trials with respect to total words formed in 2 minutes. The time is measured in seconds and the distance is measured in millimeters.
