a The parameters in the table reflect average score at study outset (intercept) and whether age (age) or intervention group (group) or the interaction (age × group) were related to scores at baseline. We examine changes over the follow-up interval (time) as a function of age (age × time), intervention group (group × time), or their interaction (age × group × time) influenced these changes.
