Describe the results using sample presentation examples in handout:
A comparison of finger wrist tapping test in the dominant hand of male (n= 59) and female (n= 40)
revealed that male had a lower mean (SD) value 51.20 (14.75) than female 53.08 (9.40). The
difference between the means of the groups was statistically significant (p= 0.479).
