Table 3.

Descriptive statistics of the behavioral tasks (i.e., n-back and go/no-go) performed in the scanner. Notably, for reaction time, we found significant reductions during the n-back task post-consumption for WCCE but not for the placebo. For accuracy, we found that accuracy during the go/no-go task declined post-consumption of the placebo but not post-consumption of WCCE.
