Hi all, yes, I do realize that the pdf I sent was missing the most interesting part. I have pasted the references below. And my apologies for spamming the list with an attachment in the first place. I intended to send it to Brianna only, since it is actually a couple pages out of a longer symposium abstract that is not yet publication ready. The final version will go up on my website in a couple weeks.
Thanks for your continued patience with my early morning, pre-coffee lack of email etiquette. :) Andrea REFERENCES Bryant, S., Forte, A. & Bruckman, A. (2005,).
