Note: SPPT = Sentence Production Priming Test from NAVS (Thompson, 2011); NAT = Northwestern Anagram Test (Thompson et al., 2012b); NAVI = Northwestern Assessment of Verb Inflection (Lee & Thompson, 2017); ASPT = Argument Structure Production Task from NAVS; GS = grammatical sentences; VM = verb morphology; VAS = verb-argument structure. BOLD = relatively strong loadings (absolute value > 0.4).
