Table 4.

ANCOVA results for each kinematic variable, control participants versus those with tic disorders, with age as covariate; and for control participants versus those with tic disorders, groups are split into two (those without ADHD and those with ADHD), with age as covariate, and planned contrasts comparing each of the two patient groups to the control group.
