Population Mean (standard deviation) Effect size P-value
Overall 1.75 (8.35)
Sex
 Male 3.23 (13.39) 0.28 .002
 Female 0.88 (2.24)
Age
 18–24 years 2.65 (7.52) 0.01 .079
 25–34 years 3.20 (14.89)
 35–44 years 1.26 (3.17)
 45–54 years 1.03 (1.98)
 55–64 years 1.74 (8.56)
 65–74 years 0.71 (1.44)
 ≥75 years 0.26 (0.76)

Effect size was calculated using Cohen's d for the sex analysis and eta squared for the age analysis.

P-values were obtained using t-test and analysis of variance.
