Table III. Partial correlations of AUSCAN pain and function subscales to hand strength, and hand pain (total sample).

	AUSCAN pain		AUSCAN function

	r^*	P-value	r^*	P-value
Grip strength, right	−0.01	0.621	−0.24	<0.001
Grip strength, left	−0.01	0.679	−0.23	<0.001
Pinch strength, right	−0.02	0.482	−0.14	<0.001
Pinch strength, left	−0.01	0.652	−0.14	<0.001
Self-reported right hand pain	0.22	<0.001	−0.15	<0.001
Self-reported left hand pain	0.23	<0.001	−0.14	<0.001

Note: Partial correlations (Spearman) represent the association of one subscale with the strength or pain item while controlling for the other subscale. Correlations are also adjusted for age and sex.
