The first number in each cell is the coefficient quantifying the change in the average mood, sleep quality and alertness in the presence of the predictor (or per 1 unit change for continuous predictors such as age). Number in parentheses is the 95% confidence interval (uncertainty of the model for the value of the coefficient), and the final number is the p value measuring statistical significance. All models are adjusted for a linear trend in day-to-day performance in each of the 3 domains.
