Figure 2.2 Hypothetical model of the Threshold Hypothesis (Lee & Schallert, 1997 p.3) whereas beyond that level, the correlations between reading in the two languages increases Figure 3.2 Example of an item from the 2000-word family variables will follow. Assessment of the variable LexTale —(.660 so the distribution has a small deviation from the normal distribution. Figure 4.3 Reading comprehension in L1 distribution has a small deviation from normal distribution. There is no ceiling or floor effect.
