Pro-Overlap | 252.10 (50.94) | 255.55 (41.92) | 235.34 (46.70) |
Pro-Step | 209.77 (33.96) | 198.43 (35.59) | 188.73 (38.87) |
Anti-Overlap | 344.75 (52.97) | 336.77 (64.60) | 326.91 (62.16) |
Anti-Step | 306.11 (60.67) | 302.39 (58.44) | 286.49 (64.85) |
Patients had significantly lower accuracy in prosaccades for overlap fixations than controls (t33=2.64, p=.013).
Patients had significantly lower accuracy in antisaccades than controls (t33=3.79, p=.001) and relatives (t32=3.45, p=.001), regardless of fixation condition.
Relatives had significantly higher antisaccade accuracy for overlap fixations compared to step fixations (t18=2.56, p=.020).
All groups had significantly longer saccade latency for overlap fixations compared to step fixations, regardless of saccade tasks. There was no significant group difference in saccade latency.
Note. Pro = prosaccade, Anti = antisaccade, Step = step fixation condition, Overlap = overlap fixation conditions.
