Why has it squashed up the middle two columns? I'm quite new to LaTex, and very new to siunitx.
Also, is there any way to avoid having to put the braces around the textual column entries? It's kind of a pain when there are a lot of rows.

You just need to set appropriate values in your table-formats. In your case, you have to worry about the number of digits before and after the decimal separator and, in the second column, the presence of the sign.

@Jim421616 It introduces grouping for larger numbers, but only for the integer part.siunitx's default is to put a thin space between groups and to group by three digits, but doesn't separate a single digit (that is, you must have at least five numbers for the grouping to take place).

@Jim421616 I've added some small improvements (booktabs, in particular, but also better digit groupint).

Ok, so what does the linesisetup{group-digits=integer}do exactly?

@Jim421616 It introduces grouping for larger numbers, but only for the integer part.siunitx's default is to put a thin space between groups and to group by three digits, but doesn't separate a single digit (that is, you must have at least five numbers for the grouping to take place). Notice the five digit numbers in your third column, and you'll see what's going on.

Ah that's better! Is there any way to avoid having to put the braces around the text values in the first column? Maybe a column format specifier or something?
