The mean, standard deviation and median path lengths (in pixels) and durations (in milliseconds) are given for each group and condition, in addition to the pairwise comparisons between the two conditions (paired t-test or Wilcoxon signed-rank test) and the 95% CI of each comparison’s effect size (95% CI for the difference in means, or medians in case of non-normal distributions). Values are presented as mean (SD) [median] followed below by t-test/signed-rank test and effect size 95% CI. Statistically significant results are highlighted in bold. n = number of participants.

a

Both conditions performed with indirect visual feedback.
