| Young Mean (SD) | Middle-Aged Mean (SD) | Older Mean (SD) | Effect of Age | Middle-Aged vs. Young | Older vs. Young | Older vs. Middle-Aged | |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| MSLT (min) | 8.7 (4.5) | 11.7 (5.1) | 14.2 (4.1) | P < 0.0001 | P = 0.0078 | P < 0.0001 | (P = 0.0567) |
| KSS points (max = 9) | 3.7 (1.0) | 3.2 (0.9) | 3.4 (0.6) | P = 0.0310 | P = 0.0088 | NS | NS |
MSLT: N = 44, 35, 31 for the young, middle-aged, and older, respectively. KSS: N = 39, 35, 31. Statistics for MSLT on log transformed values.
