Quadratic and cubic rates of fatigue are shown where log likelihood tests indicated a better fit for models including these trends.

‘b’ is the estimate of the fixed effect. ‘Error’ is the SE. ‘t’ is the t-statistic for the fixed effect. ‘P’ is the significance of the effect. ‘95% CI’ is the 95% CI for the fixed effect.
