Notes. Weighted_Overall_R indicates the overall weighted absolute correlation that gives equal weight to each task (visual lexical decision, auditory lexical decision, naming, recognition memory, and semantic decision). Weighted_Overall_Rank indicates the rank based on Weighted_Overall_R among all 130 variables.
