Table 4.

Pearson correlations between an improvement variable for performance on visual training and a d-prime variable for performance on a lexical decision task post-training.

Improvement index magnocellular training Improvement index parvocellular training
D-prime Anagram r = 0.576 r = 0.010
p = 0.032* p = 0.488
D-prime Word r = 0.540 r = 0.102
p = 0.043* p = 0.383

D-prime Anagram refers to the post-training d-prime score for adjacent anagrams, and D-prime Word refers to the post-training d-prime score for real words. While improvement on magnocellular training significantly correlated with post-training d-prime scores on adjacent anagrams and real words, there was no significant correlation between improvement in parvocellular training and the lexical decision d-primes. (*p < 0.05).
