Table 1 is reproduced and modified from Eichenlaub et al. (2014a) with permission of the authors. Only values obtained with visual scoring (JBE) are reported. TIB refers to time in bed; SPT, sleep period time; WASO, wakefulness after sleep onset; TST, total sleep time; REM, rapid eye movement sleep; min, minutes. In comparison with the standard values presented in the last column (Hirshkowitz, 2004), the quality of sleep was generally preserved for the 36 subjects. *p < 0.05.
