Note. Table displays raw values, test statistics, and effect sizes for demographic and neuropsychological test performances. All neuropsychological tests were administered and scored in standard fashion. TBI = traumatic brain injury; SDMT = Symbol Digit Modalities Test; TMT A = Trail Making Test, Part A; CVLT–II = California Verbal Learning Test-Second Edition; 1–5 = Learning Trials 1 through 5; LDFR = long-delayed free recall;TMT B = Trail Making Test, Part B; WCST = Wisconsin Card Sorting Test (64-card version).
Significant result; p ≤ .05 and q ≤ .05.
