“…We included these children because they had not been identified by their schools as presenting a low nonverbal IQ, and the children's PTONI scores did not correlate with their rates of zero-marked infinitival TO (r ≤ .13). Also, although many studies of SLI use a −1 SD cut score for nonverbal IQ, some use a −1.3, −1.5, or −2.0 SD cut score (e.g., Anaya, Peña, & Bedore, 2017;Desmottes, Meulemans, Patinec, & Maillart, 2017;Kapa, Plante, & Doubleday, 2017;Montgomery, Gillam, Evans, & Sergeev, 2017;Sanjeevan & Mainela-Arnold, 2017;Van Horne, Fey, & Curran, 2017). Finally, the practice of cognitive referencing to select children for studies of SLI has been discussed and questioned in various publications (see Ebbles, 2014;Leonard, 2014;Rice, 2016).…”
