Partial Spearman’s correlations controlling for the effects of age were conducted between robotic measures and clinical motor assessments. R values of each correlation are shown. An asterisks (*) denotes significant correlations following Bonferroni correction for multiple comparisons (6 comparisons, α = 0.05, p < 0.008).
