Figure 4. Correlation of haptic, tactile, and cognitive performance.
Second order partial correlations controlling for the age of all subjects were calculated. There was no significant correlation between tactile and haptic performance of the subjects (A; N = 74, r = 0.133, p = 0.126), but there was a correlation between haptic and cognitive performance (B; N = 74, r = −0.348, p = 0.001) and between tactile acuity and cognitive performance (C; N = 76, r = −0.198, p = 0.041).
