R: Pearson correlation coefficient; Pcorr < 0.05: percentage of subjects with False Discovery Rate-corrected P values < 0.05; I ≥ II and II ≥ I: classification direction. Significance levels (correlation: one-sample t-test vs. zero; classification: binomial test) indicated by * < 0.05; ** < 0.01; *** < 0.001. Note: cases where spindles were not detected on every channel were excluded from spindle amplitude analyses.
