Estimated Cohen’s d and estimated Hedges’ g were calculated using estimated marginal means and standard errors.

Abbreviations: PAC = probability of acute change; MSSD = mean squared successive difference; EMM = estimated marginal mean; SE = standard error; 99% CI = 99% confidence interval for effect size, as our a priori alpha was set at 0.01.
