BC Between group contrasts examine if change scores in sleep data from PSG to off-PSG nights are significantly different between two specified groups, or for the PSG night column, if the group mean levels are significantly different. CI 99% approximate confidence intervals based on p-values using transformed data. Trend = Significance test of a linear trend in sleep data during the remaining nights. qt quadratic trend during the remaining nights
