Figure 2.
Correlation matrixes of Spanish and English PA using total scores (panel A), within-classroom scores adjusted for classroom mean variation (Panel B), and classroom means (Panel C). Panel A shows substantial amount of variation in the total scores that is due to the combination of variation between students within classrooms and variation between the classrooms. Panel B has less variation because it has adjusted for the between-classroom variation by removing the classroom means. There are less points in panel C because the panel depicts the classroom means variation. EBP= English blending phonemes; EPE= English phoneme elision; ESW= English segmenting words; SBP= Spanish blending phonemes SPE= Spanish phoneme elision; SSW= Spanish segmenting words.
