a strong trendp = .05
In the data analyzed here, we did not observe any marked differences in effects when adding meditation status ( n = 6) as a covariate, but the shift in the NREM gamma band from a strong trend (uncorrected p = .05) to a significant effect in the regression analysis corrected for meditation status ( p .=011) indicated that meditation practice might indeed mask the strength of the effect in the NREM-gamma band.
