Figure 2.
Intervention group differences in latent change in cognitive ability at post-intervention and at follow-up, 4 months later. The Active experiencing (AE) condition produced significantly greater gains in story and thematic recall in episodic memory as compared to the control group at post-intervention, but not at follow-up. Groups were similar in the magnitude of change in all other cognitive constructs. Intervention group comparisons were made in a grouped latent change score model, including covariates and constraints to ensure measurement invariance longitudinally and between groups. Unstandardized coefficients are reported for measures normed to pre-intervention means and standard deviations of the total sample. Error bars represent bias-corrected bootstrapped 95% confidence intervals; *p < 0.01; †p < 0.05; α’ = 0.01. AE, AE intervention condition; Control, active control condition.
