Exploratory Analyses Although this sample is too small to make meaningful statistical comparisons, mean NESS and ISI scores seemed to improve at a greater rate in the full-threshold group versus the sub-threshold group. NESS scores reduced on average 12.0 points (t = 6.1, df = 9, p = .00) versus 4.4 points in the group who met sub-threshold criteria (t= 1.92, df = 4, p = .13). In addition, ISI scores dropped an average of 7.2 points (t=4.6, df = 9, p = .001) in the full- threshold group versus 1.8 points in the sub-threshold group (t= .47, df = 4, p = .67). Interestingly, BDI scores averaged a 9.6 drop in both groups. See Table 11 for a breakdown of average scores on these measures. Table 11 Primary Outcome Scores Before and After BLT Full-Threshold NES (N=10) Sub-Threshold NES (N=5) Before Light Therapy NESS 27.1 ISI 14.5 BDI 16.9 After Light Therapy 15.1 7.3 7.3 Before Light Therapy 23.4 12.2 18.2 After Light Therapy 19.0 10.4 8.6 By dividing the sample in to symptom subgroups, Evening Hyperphagia Only (EH Only), Nocturnal Ingestions Only (NI Only), and Both NI and EH (Both), a preliminary examination of specific symptoms of night eating was possible. Again, this sample was too small to make meaningful statistical comparisons, but it appears that BLT may have had the most overall impact on those with both NI and EH. See Table 12 for a breakdown of average scores on these measures by symptom subgroups. 48PDF Image | BRIGHT LIGHT THERAPY FOR late NIGHT EATING SYNDRome
