Results of linear regressions assessing BMI as a predictor of ASC and EBI controlling for age, sex and study.

Acute scale	Frequentist			Bayesian*
	B	95% CI	p	BF02	BF12
ASC-OBN	0.30	−1.20, 1.81	0.689	39.63	2.82
ASC-DED	−1.07	−2.25, 0.12	0.076	0.38	0.69
ASC-VRS	0.40	−0.90, 1.70	0.538	3.63	2.35
ASC total	−0.09	−1.20, 1.01	0.87	5.83	2.66
EBI	−0.11	−1.79, 2.02	0.904	30.91	2.60

ASC, N = 77; EBI, N = 56.

ASC: altered states of consciousness; BF: Bayes Factor; BMI: body mass index; DED: dread of ego dissolution; OBN: oceanic boundlessness; VRS: visionary restructuralization; EBI: emotional breakthrough inventory.

M₀: null model.

M₁: Age + Sex + Study.

M₂: Age + Sex + Study + BMI.

^*While BFs are commonly presented as evidence for the alternative relative to the null, here we presented evidence for the null relative to the alternative (BF₀₁ and BF₁₂) because BF > 1 are easier to interpret than BF < 1 (Rouder and Morey, 2012).
