- Table rows: The CR and CTS disability and psychological variables which were revealed to be correlated in present and prior CTS studies, included in this comparison
- Table columns: r: r correlation coefficient; z: Z score (Fisher’s r to z transformation, is done so that the z scores can be compared and analyzed for statistical significance by determining the observed z test statistic); Z observed: with Z observed at a set level of significance, statistical significance can be assessed
- Level of significance set at 0.05, which indicates that the critical value is ±1.96, all of our Z observed fall into the accepted region and are within the critical value; thus, not statistically significant
