Age-specific relationship between the modulation of brain dynamics in response to task demands and bimanual performance

class="figure-viewer-img"

Mean BTT scores across task conditions per age group. The figure shows mean BTT scores (%) for each task condition (Line 1:1, Line 3:1, and Angle 3:1) in Younger Adults (teal, triangle) and Older Adults (orange, circle). Whiskers indicate standard deviation. Both groups achieved their highest scores in Line 1:1 and their lowest in Angle 3:1. Following a significant main effect of TASK CONDITION, post hoc Tukey Honestly Significant Difference tests revealed that Angle 3:1 differed significantly from both Line 1:1 and Line 3:1 (*** p < 0.001), while the two “Line” conditions did not differ (n.s.). Abbreviations: BTT = Bimanual Tracking Task; n.s. = non-significant.
