  1. Superscripts indicate which groups show significant differences. a HC higher TRP than ET and PD; b HC higher than ET; c ET higher TRP than HC; dPD and ET higher TRP than HC; C2 Cued tapping task at 2 Hz, NC2 Non-cued tapping task at 2 Hz, C4 Cued tapping task at 4 Hz, NC4 Non-cued tapping task at 4 Hz
