Table 1. Demographic and Behavioral Performance Data.

For % Correct and RT data, values in first line reflect sample included in ERP analyses and values in second line reflect full sample. Patient - co-twin pairs and control pairs did not differ in age (patient - co-twins: mean of 48.0 years, control twins: mean of 48.7 years; F(1, 35) = 0.07, P = 0.80), gender distribution, handedness, or race/ethnicity (all White, non-Hispanic).
