Z scores based on different reference populations: two-dot plots of temporal discrimination threshold (TDT) Z scores across the 3 groups, on the left using the healthy nonmusician control participants (group 3) as the reference population (mean, 32.9 milliseconds; SD, 15.9 milliseconds) and on the right using healthy musician controls (group 2) as the reference population (mean, 23.7 milliseconds; SD, 7.3 milliseconds). The dotted lines define Z scores of ±2.5 SDs relative to the mean of the reference population. Error bars indicate group means and the 95% confidence intervals.
