Table 5. Baseline and interval scores with paired t tests for cognitive tests.
Brixton | FAB | Hayling A | Hayling B | ACE-R | |
---|---|---|---|---|---|
Baseline | 2.8 | 11.7 | 12 | 12.5 | 79.7 |
Interval | 2.7 | 11.7 | 11.9 | 12.9 | 76.6 |
t (df) | 0.3 (15) | 0.4 (14) | 0.08 (15) | -0.7 (15) | 1.9 (15) |
p value | 0.8 | 0.7 | 0.9 | 0.2 | 0.04 |
Mean baseline and interval scores are given. FAB is the frontal assessment battery, Hayling A is the number of category A errors in the Hayling test, and Hayling B the number of category B errors. ACE-R is the Addenbrooke’s Cognitive Examination Revised. The scores for Hayling A errors and Hayling B errors are given untransformed, therefore a higher score indicates more errors and therefore deteriorating function. t is the t statistic, df is the degrees of freedom, p values given are one tailed. The p value for which differences in baseline and interval scores would be significant using the Bonferroni correction for 5 comparisons is p<0.01. None of the cognitive tests are significant at this level.
