Table 4 Statistical results for the cardiac features in the frequency domain: Power of the low-frequency range (0.04 Hz to 0.15 Hz) LF, power of the high-frequency range (0.15 Hz to 0.4 Hz) HF, and the ratio LF/HF - all given as patient-individual z-scores over all six experimental conditions. The results contain values from the \(2\times 3\) rm ANOVA for main effects and interactions: test statistics \(F(\text {df}_{f1}, \text {df}_{f2})\), significance level p, and effect size (Partial Eta Squared) \(\eta _p^2\). In case of significant main effects, post hoc (pairwise) t-tests are reported with the test-statistic \(T(\text {df}_{t})\), Holm-adjusted significance level \(p_{\text {adj}}\) and effect size as Cohen’s d.
