Table 4.
Posterior means (PM) and standard deviations (PSD) adjusted for age and IQ and Bayes factors (BF) and posterior model probabilities (PMP) of the three models for the cognitive risk and protective factors of the gifted/dyslexic and borderline children
| Skill/component | Gifted + dyslexia (n = 26) |
Borderline (n = 14) |
Model 0 (μB, μGD) |
Model 1 (μB > μGD)a |
Model 2 (μB = μGD) |

Italicized values indicate BFs of models that received most support from the data
aμB < μGD for both RAN variables, because higher numbers indicate worse performance
