Age was adjusted in all analyses. Estimates with df < 4 are not considered to be reliable. ES, effect sizes assessed in correlation; m, number of effect sizes; n, number of studies; —, refers to analyses where the degrees of freedom was less than 4, which would provide unreliable estimates, therefore estimates were not analyzed.
