Note: The comparisons between participant pools consisted of Fisher exact tests. For each criterion and for each participant pool, we indicated how many participants remained in the sample on which the criterion was evaluated. For each sample, we indicated what percentage did not meet the criterion. For each percentage of data patterns that did not meet the criterion, we presented the 95% Wilson confidence interval, suitable for binomial data and small samples.
