2.2.3. Data Analysis
All data were stored in an electronic database, then preprocessed and analyzed using Matlab R2014b (The percentage of time-on-target and the mean deviation of the mouse cursor from the target (in pixels) for the pursuit rotor task;The block span (i.e., the longest length at which at least one pattern was correctly recalled) and the total score (i.e., the span × the number of trials total that were correctly recalled) for the Corsi block-tapping task.Note that for cognitive tasks 1–3, the ten first trials on each testing session were removed from the analysis. Similarly, RTs of less than 100 ms and RTs higher than 1500 ms for the Simon task [Repeated-measure ANOVAs, and, when needed, Tukey (HSD) post hoc tests, were then used to determine whether there was a statistically significant difference between the means of the three groups (G-Nor, G-Con, and G-Int) on the different dependent variables. The three groups were considered as a between-subjects factor (group), whereas the time of the evaluation (pre, post) was considered as the within-subject factor (time). The sphericity was assessed using Mauchly’s test, and a Greenhouse–Geisser (G-G) correction was used when sphericity could not be assumed. All results were presented as mean ± standard deviation (SD) and statistical significance was accepted at
