TST, total sleep time; SE, sleep efficiency; SOL, sleep onset latency; WASO, wake after sleep onset; “light”, PSG-derived N1 + N2; “deep”, PSG-derived N3; REM, rapid eye movement sleep; SD, standard deviation; CI, confidence intervals; LOA, limit of agreement; ref, reference-derived measures (i.e. PSG, used to quantify the size of measurement).

*Cases showing a significant bias, proportional bias or heteroscedasticity. When a proportional bias was detected, a linear model predicting the discrepancies by the corresponding PSG measures was specified, and 95% CI were reported for the model’s intercept (b0) and slope (b1), as indicated in equation (1). When heteroscedasticity was detected, a linear model predicting the absolute residuals of the previous model by PSG-derived measures was specified, and 95% CI were reported for the model’s intercept (c0) and slope (c1), as indicated in equation (3).
