Table 2.

Performance on language assessments before and after treatment. Trained words = performance on individualized word sets targeted in treatment. Untrained words = Length List from JHU Dysgraphia Battery (Goodman & Caramazza, 1985) administered immediately prior to treatment. Oral reading = PALPA 35 (Kay et al., 1996); Reading comprehension = PALPA 51 (Kay et al., 1996). Single word auditory comprehension = Northwestern Naming Battery (Thompson et al., 2012). Picture semantics = Pyramids and Palm Trees (Howard & Patterson, 1992). Spoken word production = Northwestern Naming Battery (Thompson et al., 2012). Bonferroni corrected threshold for multiple comparisons is p < 0.007.
