Part A summarizes the number of subjects and number of tests completed in each age group and the hit and false alarm rates for each grouping. Part B summarizes the results of the linear mixed model analyses of hit and false alarm rates as a function of age and test session. The regression model used age group and test session as fixed effects, with age group = 4–6 months, test session = first, and hit or false alarm rate = 0, with subject identifier as a random effect. S.E. = stanard error, CI = confidence interval. Significant effects are indicated with an asterisk.
