*Stroop CW=stroop colour-words condition; stroop C=stroop coloured-X's condition; n=newtons; w=watts; m/sec=metres per second.
†Mean change for all cognitive measures=final value minus baseline value. Positive change indicates improvement. Mean change for all performance measures=final value minus baseline value. Positive change indicates improvement.
