  • Model 1 provides the odds ratio (OR) (95% CI) for the unadjusted model of the association between race/ethnicity and sleep disturbance. Models 2 through 7 provide the OR (95% CI) for the adjusted models of the association between race/ethnicity and sleep disturbance (each model's OR is adjusted for a single covariate). The Full Model provides the OR for the fully adjusted model of the association between race/ethnicity and sleep disturbance (after adjusting for all covariates).

  • * Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index (PSQI) score >6.

  • Wald statistic, P ≤ .05.

  • Wald statistic, p < .1.

  • § Center for Epidemiological Studies Depression Scale, Revised (CESD-R) scores exclude sleep items.

  • The OR for education level represents the odds compared with the highest education level (having an Associate's or higher degree).

  • The OR for each CESD-R quartile represents the odds compared to the lowest quartile.

  • ** The morbidity index is a continuous variable.
