Table 5 Light data cleaning procedures
From: Naturalistic light exposure patterns in relation to medication status, mood symptoms, and chronotype
Rule | Description | Mean % Removed (SD) | Range (%) |
|---|---|---|---|
1 | Coverage of light sensor: values < 1 melanopic EDI during wake | 13.63 (7.67) | 1.90–48.14 |
2 | Sudden drops (<10 melanopic EDI surrounded by >10 melanopic EDI values) | 1.67 (1.43) | 0–6.11 |
3 | Flatness: very low variability during wake (<0.05 SD over 10 min), indicating the sensor may have been stationary (unworn) or covered | 3.87 (4.77) | 0–25.64 |
Total cleaned | 19.17 (13.87) | 0–48.14 |
