closeCorrection to the language of the non-word repetition study by Balladares et al.
Posted by ProfChloeMarshall on 01 Jun 2021 at 10:36 GMT
Please note that in the study by Balladares et al. (2016), included in Figure 1, the language was (Chilean) Spanish, not English. Also, this study should have been included in the list of studies that examined whether there was an effect of SES on non-word repetition accuracy but found none (despite a relatively large sample size of n=126).

Thank you for the careful reading! I confirm that Figure 1 has an error in the language of Balladares, and unfortunately the office hasn't responded to me about the possibility of replacing the figure.
Balladares shouldn't be mentioned "in the list of studies that examined whether there was an effect of SES" because that list was composed using a systematic approach, and Balladares was not discovered at that time. But I confirm that my reading of their paper is the same as yours.
