Correlations between psychoacoustic measures and Principal Component 3 fluency.

Psychoacoustic measure Spearman correlation with PC3
Spearman’s rho P value
Pitch basic change detection threshold (semitones) − 0.21 0.21
Pitch detection of local change (% correct) 0.43 0.04
Pitch detection of global change (% correct) 0.63 0.003*
Rhythm single time interval discrimination threshold (%) − 0.64 0.004*
Rhythm isochrony deviation detection threshold (%) − 0.20 0.24
Rhythm metrical pattern discrimination threshold (%) − 0.72 0.001*
Dynamic modulation detection threshold (%) − 0.15 0.29

‘P value’ corresponds to uncorrected one-sided p-values from Spearman correlations comparing psychoacoustic scores with PC3 fluency scores in the post-stroke aphasia subgroup. * indicates the p-value is significant at the Bonferroni corrected significance threshold of p < 0.007 (corrected for 7 comparisons). ‘PC’ = Principal Component.
