Tables 4A and 4B.
Parameter estimates for logistic regressions examining the effect of syntactic complexity on verb knowledge. Table 4A (Model 1) examines the relationship between age and syntactic complexity. Table 4B (Model 2) examines the relationship between group and syntactic complexity, with beta estimates calculated using the TD group as a baseline.
