Table 4 Risk ratios \(G_{+}/G_{-}\) for high fatigue (\(\texttt {SP} \ge 6\)) and sleepiness (\(\texttt {KSS} \ge 7\)) scores and their 95% confidence intervals for all workload variables with statistically significant Pearson’s correlations with SP and/or KSS (see Table 2). Also shown the mean (or median), the threshold values and the actual fraction of excluded events for each distribution. (*) For practical purpose the DT threshold was fixed at 44h.
