All—the correlation coefficient for the group of all of the subjects, RHs—for right-handers, LHs—for left-handers. PCC—the value of the parametric correlation coefficient (Pearson), NCC—nonparametric correlation coefficient (Spearman). Significant correlations are marked with an asterisk (*) (p < 0.05) or two asterisks (**) (for p < 0.01), p-value is indicated in parenthesis in a case of trend.
