TABLE 2.

Differences in the number of VMS reported/measured via various modalities, for total sample and by race/ethnicity

Total sample White African-American

M(SD) M(SD) M(SD)
Daytime VMS (#)
End of day recalled – prospectively reported VMS b −0.75 (2.88) −0.24 (1.96) −1.34 (3.61)
End of day recalled – physiologically measured VMSa −3.22 (5.00) −1.89 (4.37) −4.79 (5.29)
Overnight VMS (#)
Morning recalled – prospectively reported VMS 0.16 (3.56) 0.20 (3.01) 0.10 (4.13)
Morning recalled – physiologically measured VMS 1.37 (2.72) 1.18 (2.21) 1.60 (3.22)

Differences by race/ethnicity:

a

P<0.05

b

P<0.10

Note: More negative indices represent fewer VMS (#) recalled than prospectively reported or physiologically measured; more positive represents more VMS (#) recalled than prospectively reported or physiologically-measured.
