Table 1.
Each box lists the median ratio (25th and 75th percentiles in brackets) of the parameter of interest (attend-RF / attend-away). Additionally it lists the number of cells that were recorded, the number of cells for which the parameter of interest was significantly affected (bootstrap method), and the p-value under the null hypothesis that the average ratio was equal to 1 (signed rank test). Ratios < 1 indicate that the parameter of interest was reduced by attention
