  2. N = 107 (N = 72 Group 1 and N = 35 Group 3: MBQ-C Open on Day 7). Deletions due to missing data on the MBQ-C or 24-h TUD were as follows: Non-interactive Screen Time (N = 32), Interactive Screen time (N = 32), and Sleep (N = 37)
  3. N = 108 (N = 72 Group 2 and N = 36 Group 4: MBQ-C Closed on Day 7). Deletions due to missing data on the MBQ-C or 24-h TUD were as follows: Non-interactive Screen Time (N = 17) and Interactive Screen time (N = 18), and Sleep (N = 31)
