  1. The results of phase difference estimation done by using IPD, loop analysis, and APEP on simulated time series under different simulation setups. The θ 0 and the estimated phase difference were submitted to one-sample t test
  2. The significant difference between the estimated phase difference and the gold standard θ 0 is denoted by * p < 0.05, ** p < 0.01, *** p < 0.001
