Table 2.

Summary of analyses for specific frequency windows described by Llinás et al. [11, 12]. r mAAC,Group∣Age denotes the partial correlation between mAAC and group assignment controlling for age. A positive correlation indicates an increase of mAAC in the tinnitus group compared to the controls. r mAAC,Age is the zero-order correlation between mAAC and age. t mAAC~Group gives the two-sample t statistic for comparing mAAC between tinnitus participants and controls. All effect sizes are measured in terms of Cohen's d; CI denotes the confidence interval for d. The hemispheric comparison is between mAAC in the auditory cortices ipsilateral and contralateral to the tinnitus in subjects with unilateral tinnitus; the t statistic is for a pairwise test. All p values are computed by means of nonparametric permutation tests.
