Table provides estimates and standard errors (in parenthese) for parameters of interest (α0, α1, β0, and β1). α0 is the mean difference relative to baseline under the control condition at minute 14, and α1 is the discrepancy in that mean difference for mindfulness meditation (MM) relative to control condition at minute 14. β0 is the rate of change of the difference from baseline over time under the control condition, whereas β1 is the discrepancy in that rate of change for MM relative to the control condition.
