We counted the number of calls during the call session and calculated parameters of begging sessions (i.e. a series of long begging calls, followed by at least 10 min silence) from call counts, as previously described in Quillfeldt et al. (2006): Total number of calls in a begging session, duration of the begging session, mean call rate (calls/min) and maximum call rate in a begging session.
To this end, we performed a principal component analysis on ten parameters of locomotion during session 5 (see " Materials and methods").
This information is sent to the AP by the station in ADDTS messages (which include an extensive set of QoS parameters) at session setup time.
Changes in the HRV parameters from pre-session to session, and from pre-session to post-session were studied using Wilcoxon signed-rank test.
This model therefore assumes a multiplicative change of parameters between sessions, analogous to the within-session exponential decay assumed by DBERM.
Only one out of the total of 11 analysed parameters differed from normality (p > 0.2 for all parameters except session duration).
Manipulations of the task parameters within a session, to either increase or decrease explicit demands on sustained attention, were not associated with fluctuations in ACh efflux.
A repeated measures ANOVA was performed to analyze the differences of parameters among three sessions.
31 Besides the hypothetically beneficial characteristics of the applied load described above, a further advantage of this device is the ability to store training parameters of up to 40 sessions.
Besides these hypothetically beneficial characteristics of the applied load, a further advantage of the electronic leading device is the ability to store parameters of up to 40 IMT sessions.
Finally, the degree of burstiness in the arrival of sessions is summarized by the parameter I a, which is the index of dispersion of session inter-arrival times.
