Table 3

Results of post hoc LSD test ( value) for comparison mean of infants’ motor responses in paired groups.

	Groups	Time
		Before	During	Immediately after	1 hr after
Morning	Earmuff & silence	0.2	0.000^*	0.000^*	0.000^*
	Earmuff & control	0.6	0.000^*	0.05^*	0.000^*
	Silence & control	0.2	0.03^*	0.003^*	0.000^*
Afternoon	Earmuff & silence	0.6	0.02^*	0.02^*	0.000^*
	Earmuff & control	0.6	0.000^*	0.000^*	0.4
	Silence & control	0.3	0.000^*	0.01^*	0.001^*

means that the difference is meaningful.
