P1: p value of parametric tests; P2: p value of nonparametric tests; *: p < 0.05, **p < 0.01

Parametric tests: comparison between two samples used the independent samples t test; others used the one-way ANOVA; nonparametric tests: comparison between two samples used the Mann-Whitney U test; others used the Kruskal-Wallis H test
