Table 4.

Correlations between factor variables and tasks performances.

1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. 8. 9. 10.
1. Factor 1 “physical” BP 1 1
2. Factor 2 “mental” BP 2 0.142 1
3. Cold pressor task time 0.862** 0.035 1
4. Hand grip endurance task time 1 0.900 ** 0.122 0.584 ** 1
5. Hand grip endurance task time 2 0.697 ** 0.012 0.424 ** 0.813 ** 1
6. Impossible verbal reasoning task time 0.165 0.839 ** 0.12 0.166 0.039 1
7. Impossible anagram task time −0.081 0.409 ** −0.035 −0.03 −0.011 0.18 1
8. Thread and needle task time 0.495 ** 0.647 ** 0.336 * 0.364 ** 0.195 0.358 ** 0.051 1
9. Boring video task time 0.303 * 0.484 ** 0.191 0.248 0.22 0.211 0.159 0.287 * 1
10. “Physical” BP sum 3 0.956 ** 0.341 * 0.813 ** 0.826 ** 0.607 ** 0.273 * −0.006 0.721 ** 0.308 * 1
11. “Mental” BP sum 4 0.400 ** 0.902 ** 0.277 * 0.322 * 0.142 0.824 ** 0.14 0.824 ** 0.302 * 0.603 **

* p < 0.05; ** p < 0.01. 1. Factor 1 “physical” BP and 2. Factor 2 “mental” BP are BP-related variables that have been formed by creating a combined factor variable based on the actual factor loadings. 3 The “Physical” BP sum has been formed by adding together the cold pressor task time and hand grip endurance task time. 4 The “Mental” BP sum has been formed by adding together the impossible verbal reasoning task time and thread and needle task time.
