Table 1. Statistics Results.

Total number of (A) training, (B) feedback, and (C) open question sessions performed by each patient. The total number of sessions averaged and degrees of freedom used to perform t-tests between the true and false sentences’ ISI corresponding to (D) O2Hb, (E) EEG, and (F) EOG signals. (G) ANOVA using support vector machine (SVM) classification accuracy (CA) of O2Hb, EEG, and EOG signals. Post hoc t-test performed between (H) O2Hb versus EEG, (I) O2Hb versus EOG, and (J) EEG versus EOG classification accuracy. Note that each session contains 20 questions: 10 asking for a “yes” and 10 semantically equivalent questions asking for a “no” answer.
