Notes: Estimates are from the final parsimonious model adjusting for significant predictors (age, gender, education, BMI, depression, IADL, morbidity, and baseline cognition). Bold values represent p < .05.

aModel estimated within group mean change.

bEstimate of difference in change scores between indicated groups and the intermediate/intermediate group.

p-value testing whether group specific mean change is different from 0 or odds ratio is different from 1; p-value testing whether there is a significant difference in changes between groups; **p-values for overall associations represent the probability of any significant differences in changes among the nine temporal napping groups.
