Role of Working Memory Storage and Attention Focus Switching in Children’s Comprehension of Spoken Object Relative Sentences

Table 2

Bivariate correlations between the experimental measures (𝑁=44).

Variables	1	2	3	4
1 Age	—	.394*	.614**	.484**
2 WMs		—	.440*	.545**
3 Attention switching		.272	—	.661**
4 OR comprehension		.440*	.526**	—

Note. **Significant at 𝛼=.001 (2 tailed); *significant at 𝛼=.01 (2 tailed). Switching accuracy = attention switching accuracy and OR comprehension = object relative comprehension. Values below the diagonal represent partial correlations with age partialled out.
