Levene test:

Mean comparison:

C1 (Beta - EMG)

(F[1, 958] = 28.936), p < .001

(F[1, 705.346] = 6.488), p < .001

C2 (Delta - Theta)

(F[1, 958] = 361.333), p < .001

(F[1, 561.066] = 32.359), p < .001

C3 (Alpha)

(F[1, 958] = 48.738), p < .001

(F[1, 695.931] = 2.455), p < .014

C4 (Mu)

(F[1, 958] = 6.373), p < .012

  1. The F values of Levene test (homogeneity of variances) and One-way ANOVA (two between-subjects levels: children and young adults) are displayed. The rhythms associated to each component are indicated from component 1 (C1) to component 9 (C9) . In the case of C1 the term Beta-EMG refers to the possible contamination of the Beta rhythm by electromyographic signals.
