aAdjusted R2 for model A was 0.344, and P value from the Breusch-Pagan test for homoscedasticity for model A was .02. Heteroskedasticity is indicated if P value is <.05

bAdjusted R2 for model B was 0.407, and P value from the Breusch-Pagan test for homoscedasticity for model B was 0.61. Heteroskedasticity is indicated if P value is <.05

cThe number of hints given as a ratio of number of tries a learner had in the second single learning session.
