Pearson r and significance level for correlations between low contrast flicker fusion and the low contrast peak-to-peak amplitudes and the M efficiency ratio of the VEP, as well as correlations between high contrast flicker fusion and the high contrast peak to peak amplitudes and P efficiency ratio of the VEP.
| VEP | Flicker fusion | |
|---|---|---|
| Low contrast df(64) | High contrast df(63) | |
| First order kernel LC K1 (N70-P100) | r = 0.075, p = 0.274 | |
| LC K1 (N140-P170) | r = −0.052, p = 0.338 | |
| HC K1 (N80-P100) | r = −0.181, p = 0.074 | |
| HC K1 (N140-P180) | r = −0.116, p = 0.159 | |
| Second order kernel slice 1 LC K21 (N70-P100) | r = −0.345*, p < 0.002 | |
| HC K21 (N70-P110) | r = −0.415**, p < 0.000 | |
| Second order kernel slice 2 LC K22 (N70-P80) | r = −0.320*, p < 0.004 | |
| LC K22 (N110-P150) | r = −0.041, p = 0.456 | |
| HC K22 (N70-P90) | r = −0.213, p = 0.044 | |
| HC K22 (N110-P150) | r = −0.016, p = 0.450 | |
| LC M efficiency | r = 0.314*, p < 0.005 | |
| HC P efficiency | r = −0.132, p = 0.147 | |
p < 0.005*, p < 0.0005**, LC, low contrast; HC, high contrast.
correlational analysis of the flicker thresholds with amplitudes were analyzed in separate one tailed Pearson list-wise tests, corrected for multiple comparisons.
