  1. Beta-ERD response is the ratio between mean power in the interval from 1 to 3 s after movement onset and mean power in the interval − 3 to − 1 s before movement onset (baseline). Ratios were LN-transformed before statistical analysis and retransformed to mean ratios and mean ± SD for tabulation. Paired Student’s t-tests are included. EEG from central electrodes C3 (contralateral, left) and C4 (ipsilateral right) for the sensorimotor test and motor test
  2. Bold entries are significant p-values
