Clinical rating scales (POMS, BDI, BAI), lower scores reflect lower levels of clinical symptoms.
BIS-11, lower scores indicate lower levels of self-reported impulsivity.
PSQI, lower scores reflect improved sleep quality.
SF-36, higher scores indicate higher quality of life.
Values in bold represent statistically significant differences from Baseline to Visit 2 (p ≤ 0.05), and italicized values represent statistical trends (p ≤ 0.10).
