Note. Higher grip strength scores indicate better performance. Final analytic samples with complete baseline outcome and covariate data were speed of processing training (n=592), reasoning training (n=581), memory training (n=595), and control (n=609). Est. = Unstandardized Estimate, CI = Confidence Interval, SE = Standard Error.
