The mean accuracy (ACC) and mean reaction time (RT) were calculated for both CH-NATs and CH-PATs. There is no significant difference in 0-back for both ACC and RT however, during 2-back CH-NATs performed significantly better than CH-PATs. P-values with < 0.05 are in bold italics to denote significance (Baddeley, 1998b). * K-S values are based on (α = 0.05 critical value of 0.41. SD standard deviation; K-S, Kolmogorov-Smirnov test.
