Table 2 Average rate of change in score over time in the control group and in the experimental treatment group. Note that for the outcomes related to the expressive language, daily living skills, gross-motor and pain domains, larger values of the rates of change are considered as better outcome. The inverse is true for the outcome related to the sleep domain
Rate of change (per year) in score over time | Control group | Experimental treatment group |
|---|---|---|
Expressive language (VABS-II) | 1.31 | 3.53 |
Daily living skills (VABS-II) | 0.10 | 0.42 |
Gross-motor (VABS-II) | 0.28 | 0.94 |
Sleep (CSHQ) | − 0.01 | − 0.47 |
Pain (ITQOL) | − 0.21 | 0.50 |
