1. 
Noun Preposition - Results of the Kruskal-Wallis test of 
responses to Noun Preposition collocations show a significant main effect for the 
factor Group  (Kruskal-Wallis c
2
(2, N = 275) = 51.334, p = .0001).  The results of 
the post-hoc Dunn's multiple comparisons procedure show significant 
differences in the mean accuracy of response to this type of collocation between 
Groups 1 and 3, and between Groups 2 and 3, but not between Groups 1 and 2 
(see Table 27).
