Table 3.

Mean Individual Differences between the PASAT and baseline segments in at-fault safety errors, speed, and steering control, both within elderly and middle-aged drivers and between-groups. Between group tests were performed using the Wilcoxon-Rank Sum Test, while p-values of variable means were found using the One-sample T-Test.
